That is a lovely looking supercharger and the weber is just magic. Very jealous to be honest and even Rick Stein likes the cylinder head..... :lol:

Cylinder head looking glossy and new..... I'm guessing it wont stay that way once the engines running.

Hi, I've not bid on one yet. I've been saving up my pocket money, so focusing on the cheap jobs at the moment, mainly cleaning and painting.

Hiya, I'm very interested in doing a 1293 supercharged engine for my mini. If you don't mind me asking, roughly how much is it going to cost you?

Looks fantastic Torgo.

 

I've just finished installing one of Stuart's DCOE charger kits - staggering performance and looks excellent in the engine bay as you can see below.

 

 

Out of interest, what cylinder head work have you undertaken?
