Ghanging the engine in my 1964 Austin Mini Saloon to a turbo engine A+ series, been working on it for just over a week now, I already have a 1275 a series in it but desided to go turbo, took a few photos already, and will post them when ive worked out how too, would like any advice along the way if anyones got any, always ready to listen.. Im do'ing the turbo box mod to the body shell at the moment. Thanks every one in advance. Alan Edited by nala56 on 18th May, 2013. Main Build

I know it looks a bit dodgy, but I needed to keep lifting the car up and down for wheeling the engine and supframe in and out, and for the welding, thanks for your concern, dont worry Im not getting under the car.. Main Build
