Fitting two engines isn't hard.... the fitting that is.

But getting them into tune, and to rev, with the same power, is the hardest part!!

jezz i bet that MK1 cozzie went for a bob or two, there are quite a few twin engined minis around, but i wouldnt have a clue. I think there was a small coloum in a recent miniworld about a bloke with a twin engined mini, was a pick of him ragging it down the strip, ill try and dig it out.

Will edit once ive found it.
