Front Subframe Modifications

[Jon_MkIII]

Hi can any body help me with regards to metro front subframe modifications. I would like to know what need to be done to fix it to the mini, and how it affects a round nose? I mean can it be attached to fit under a normal round nose, or does it have to be set up for a longer front. Also what about suspension?? Could you use the normal hydro or would it have to be modified for coilovers???

Many thanks in advance. 8)

First the easy answers.

No a K series frame will not fit under a standard length roundnose.

The front suspension will have to change to coilovers, or an inboard coil setup like Watsons do.
