Jimster, from www.turbominis.co.uk, has also done this conversion. His personal website is http://mini.lyons-it.co.uk/Latest.htm. DaveCoxon, also on turbominis and here helped get it running I THINK... could be wrong on that one. There was someone else building one but I've forgotten now :oops:

Yup Dave did indeed help him with it :) Think Joh Kimmins (JohnK) on turbominis has done it also, and now sells some of the parts through his business, Sepcialist Components (I think that's what its called !)

Might be of interest :D

http://www.turbominis.co.uk/forums/index.php has all the info on the conversion you need from folks who've done it. MadMatt, John Kimmins, Jimster, and others who are actively doing / done the conversion are all registered members on there...

Specialist components have put some videos on you tube showing the engines first start and the idling etc. Looks a real nice conversion.

I have quite a few different inlet & exhaust system/options now

plenty of 8 valve cyl heads sitting here but not many 16 valve heads, they`re being snapped up quite quickly these days
