small block vauxhall conversion
Turbo Mini Forums

Hello chaps.

Going against what I want to do, and going with what is sensible, i am looking at selling my vauxhall conversion to fund the restoration of my shell. Pretty gutted to have to do this to be honest as all of the hard work has been done, this conversion is almost a bolt in kind of job.

I bought the conversion from Mininut on here last year and have been plodding away with it, slowly but progress all the same. Here is what i have here.

Small Block Subframe

This is suitable for any small block engine, C16SE, E16SE, C16XE and even some of the 1.8 16v engines, i looked into these and i think its the x8xe1 from early mk4 astras. The frame has been painted gloss black in 2k, isn't the best but does the job.

E16SE Engine

Complete and there with all wiring, never had it running myself but seems to be in good order, these are from memory 100bhp. This includes all ancilaries, injectors, rail and so on. this is with dizzy, coilpack is the C16SE but both make the same power.

F13 Box

Ideal for 13" wheels, thats what these boxes originally run i do believe.

Wiring Loom

This has been split, separated and I have even labeled up what connects to where, the hard work is done, just plug it in.

Engine Mounts

This frame and engine was intended to take 50mm Mexico mounts, these are quite expensive now so I have had some parts lasered out to allow the frame and engine to accept Land rover mounts which are far cheaper.

Adjustable lower arms

I bought Heavy duty rose jointed adjustable minisport lower arms earlier in the year, they retail at over £100 alone and are brand new, the tie rods are also rose jointed.

Drive shafts

Included in the sale are mini and vauxhall shafts, they have not been cut down or modifeid but it is a very simple job that can be completed with out the need to spend hundreds of pounds.


All ready to bolt in, just wire in your loom, coolant and have the shafts made up and its good to go.

Price wise I am asking for £400, this is taking into consideration that i've spent over £200 myself on the conversion since buying it.

Shipping is possible via pallet for £50 to UK mainland.

Photos will be uploaded as soon as i am able. Any questions please feel free to PM me or reply in here, I will try to keep on top of it.

Thanks.
