Parts for Sale - Classic Mini

Some may or may not know that I also have another car which is done up. Its no other then my first love, 1978 Mini Clubman. I have had the Mini now for about 15 years, and it has gone through at least 6 engine transplant and 4 gearbox change, all in the quest for more power! However, I have had about enough with the A series engine for the Mini and I am looking at other modern engines which will be a lot more reliable and powerful to satisfy my need. Thus I am putting up my entire engine, drivetrain, cooling, intake/induction system up for sale. Currently the engine is in pieces as I was preparing for another rebuild. The engine is A+ block with 9 stud cylinder head. Its been overbored from the standard 1275cc to 1399cc, and with all the parts listed below should make about 110-115hp at the crank. The car previously dynoed at GT Auto rollers with literally one cylinder not working properly (due to the cam) at 56whp. I have since bought a brand new billet cam, matching valve spring, oil pump and lifters from Swiftune UK to replace it but still have not installed it. Everything advertised has been bought new from the UK except for the block and cylinder head. Some parts are of course older and some newer.

I have most of the receipts and all in it would cost more then 25k, but I am looking at 12k for the whole lot. If you are interested then do drop me a line or call me at 0123350607.
