Hi guys, in new to the forum just thought I'd introduce myself and tell you what in doing.

I had a 1983 Austin mini advantage which I got rid of a few years ago and have regretted it ever since. So! I am starting again. I have bought a 1340 engine from Poole off a lovely gent and I am starting to restore the engine eventually working my way to get a shell etc.

I will show you some pics as I continue along this journey but here's how it stands ATM.
. 1340 bored honed
. cylinder has had some porting, poss stage 2, double springs, bigger valves.
.I have painted engine in metallic blue stove paint, hopefully it will do the job.
.swiftune oil filter kit.
.new water pump.
.new clutch.

In sure I have missed some things out but hopefully that's alright.

Intention is to make just a nice usable but powerful engine possible supercharge at a later date.

There is alot more to come but if anyone has any thoughts on what I have done or am doing let me know!

Cheers guys!Attached File  Screenshot_20170611-102120.png   155.46K   3 downloadsAttached File  Screenshot_20171112-133524.png   299.68K   3 downloads
