Hello everyone,
Ive wanted to do an engine conversion for a while now but havnt a clue what engines are good to put into a mini (rear or front mounted). id like to make a mini into a sleeper so the faster the better. any suggestions?

It also comes down to how much money you want to spend.
Some conversions that fit under a standard length front and bonnet are:
Turbo A series
Supercharged A series
B16/B18 honda engine (have to change the subframe)
Red top Vauxhall engine (subframe change)
Twin cam A series
This is to name just only a few but they all differ in cost.
