Hi,

Many of you know that I'm building a Mini with G13B engine.
I had a photo shoot in Jan this year and now I'm on Mini Magazine June issue.
I haven't finished my Mini yet but it is "on the job" section and 3 pages of it.
When you go to Library service of WHSmith, you just check it out!

Description is bit wrong but I will have 140Bhp with R1, cams and modified head!
Also, I got next engine setup to follow so it isn't too far out!

I look wide due to lens camera man used!...... so I hope.

Cheers
Atchi

Hi,

I suppose, you don't know spec of my engine so I tell you.

mk1 Gti Dizzy with a sports coil.
R1 carbs fitted to a custom cylinder head.
Port(matched to gasket size) and polished where it is needed both inlet and exhaust.
skimmed to increase CR.
Suzuki Sports Group A camshafts.
std cast exhaust manifold but with custom exhaust from down pipe on.
Lightened flywheel.
under drive pulley.
3.523:1 final drive ratio with Gti gear ratio.
Suzuki Sports LSD.

All above in a '68 Mini.

I have a freind who made similar mod to gearbox only with a std Gti engine.
He did 0-60 in 6.5 secs so I will be happy with that!

Cheers
Atchi
