There are three gaskets kits available, Gearbox, engine ( or conversion set ) and head set, all of which have some cross overs in the gaskets they contain, but will fulfil you needs, additionally, you will need two diff output seals ( if you're rebuilding the box ) and an primary seal as neither are contaned in any of the gasket sets. Also the head set will have a some carp head gasket, would recommend you use a BK450

Any mini specialist will be able to provide them..

Thanks people!

The engine has only done 50k. Do you all think it really does need a re-build?

Here are links to all that you would need-

Head Gaket Set With BK450

Block Gasket Set, For A and A+

Gear Box Gasket Set

Clutch Oil Seal

Out Put Shaft Seals - 2 Required


Hope that helps a little.



50000 isn't really that much, but it depends on how it has been driven and maintained. Is it making any unusual noises or leaking much oil?
