Hello every one,

I have seen on here that people have put the honda vtec b16a engine in the mins and i have to say that engine is the muts nuts. I had a crx with that engine in and was bullet proof and great on performance. The vauxhall engine i have heard great things also about it and i know someone how has it in his mini and that is rappid.

My question is you have the mini ready to start a transplant, roughly how much would it cost to put a b16a engine into a mini and how much would it cost to put the red top in.

thank you

Nick

More or less the same depending on what level of work you are willing to go to.  Vaux for torque, VTEC for high rev power.  Two totally different engines each for different driving styles.

As for red tops i have no idea on cost but at a guess it would be similar
