I have a 1000cc engine and box in the garage in Bedford. Not exactlly what you want but an option nonetheless.

Let me know if you are interested.

I also have a 1098 engine (from a mk1 midget) sat in my garage in pretty good condition. Still in the car for now but I've never tried to get it running.

Thankyou so much for the offers guys, i may take you up on it but we will be holding out for a little while, also cheers for the metro info, ive found a metro turbo engine on the bay, looks good!

are there any engines that are a simple in and out power upgrade?

Metro turbo engine is not a straight-forward drop in!!! You'll need to mod the bulkhead if you go that way.

I have a good chum possibly selling a 1990's cooper 1275 engine, i will ask how much he wants - he is trying to get some funds to finish his K series into a classic mini conversion !!

We are very local to you too, i hae just text him so watch this space
