It was a case of having it delivered to work and saying that the other was completely fubar and not worth using at all - plus with the £xxx i have spent it made little difference to her haha!
JuJu - you shouldnow me by now, I like to get it in and give it a good test before firing off- check and doible check and make sure

Just realised I never properly finished this project thread!
Wellafter running the new lump in it is running 88.9 bhp and 90lb torgue which im more than happy with - pulling away in the wet is a bit of an issue though!!
Since then the front brakes have been upgraded to vented turbo items to bring the mini up a bit quicker, and now I have an MG Metro big valve head being worked on to try and achieve the illusive 100bhp
Will probably come up slightly short bu I intend this to be the last mod for Frankie for a while:cry: my new baby will be demanding all my attention and money for a few years to come.
(Except for Megajolt which I will sneak on without the wife knowing........ going to try and import mine when I get one for my uncle's mk1 escort
)
Hope to show Frankie off a bit more after all the work that has gone into him.
maybe one day MM will get back to me about the feature they were keen to do 18 months ago.......
