quick Q. Do all mini come standard with sealed beam headlights? Without wanting to sound stupid what the difference between sealed and non sealed?

    Sealed beam headlights have no bulbs, just a filament. The whole light unit acts as a bulb.

    It failed. But on the upside not from much and nothing that cant be fixed with a days work. Im confident that it will pass when it goes back :) cant wait to get driving it. Its so low!

Will a standard oil filter housing e okay to use on a 1380 fast road producing 100+ bhp

    also, would be a good idea to flow the spin on type housing, there is alot of casting left in there after manufacturing because they arnt machined at all. in the oil feed in the middle, make it as flowey as possible. i think i put some pictures of what i did to mune on my build thread for t clubman

    Okay cheers and yeah spin on type yeah erm I copied you by drilling the holes in the housing I liked the look ad I was going to use a braided hose coming from the filter housing to a cooler il take a look at your thread

    i just looked through, i havnt. if you look at the back where it mounts to the block and under neath through the hole with the thread on it the two chanels join that feeds the oil to the filter. this can be ported and made alot smoother for better oil flow:) also the return hole is very small, take this out as much as possible
