I have a 1.3 automatic mini mayfair "K" reg and i'm looking to put a 1.3 manual cooper engine in, do I need to replace the front subframe?

Cheers

the auto frame is much wider so you either have to fabricate some spacer mounts or replace the frame. best bet is to buy a s/h complete frame with brakes, suspension etc
