        your mate wouldnt know where i can get a 2litre 16v vauxhall engine would he? or the best place to contact for a good one? i think they came in ashtray GTE 16v's and camelsrear GSi's. i want one (gearbox aswell) to put in my mini project and yes, the maths have been done, and it WILL fit, with no silly long front end going on. just need a smaller inlet manifold and it'll sit back far enough...
        Sorry bout the ashtray comment if anyone has one, they're just known as that round my way.
        150bhp+ in a mini..... and i wouldnt mind giving it a chip and some cams/headwork. any guesstimates on power?? its gonna be proper scary. . Show its to a-hell-of-alot i reckon
        Cheers,

                Cheers for those-will get browsing. i only wanted a bit more poke, so i looked at a tuned 1275, but i saw a german speedster mini with a basically standard 2.016v engine, and i've wanted one since. it was quick. i'll try to get piccies up&on show as it goes, and hopefully i'll be scaring myself shitless in no time at all...
