I'm two minds whether to do an engine conversion in my current mini or get another and do it in that. Decisions decisions... Hmmmm

    Of you don't love hauling race motors, fab work, and working all weekend all night, Motorsport just ain't your scene. Do what you love to do!

    That's the thing, I enjoy it all, but wouldn't want to do it every day! More of a weekend thing. Its the paper work that really gets me down as my theory skills are awful at the best of times

    Hah yeah, I do it as my job, build and run racing cars 24/7, it's a tough job, but I love it!!

    Yeah that sucks ass... But definitely do what you WANT to do. Working for money's sake sucks

What's a good way to clean up an engine in situ?

    Try Gunk aerosol. The high pressure can works very well.

    I found injector cleaner very effective :P

    Also Jizer degreaser works well too

    There is a simple solution then. Do your work and hand it in on time.

Apart from being adjustable, are there any other benefits to fitting Hi-lo's on the rear ?

    Genuine Hi-Los improve the spring rate of the cone springs, the various copies do not.

After picking minis for my project I suppose I should have expected having to constantly have to look at them and draw them and talk about them. Such a hard life :P

    Oh no, nothing can beet a huge hangover headache, while working in a place where you work on a very noise milling machine and with 25 welders next to you, all who love smacking various pieces of metal with mallets ALL DAY! oh and add a few hours of constant desil fumes from the next work shop along into it all to prolong the headache :P
