I like it
Where are you from?
I'm from the Blue Mountains in NSW Australia. Here is a pic of my baby, has a 1275 bored to 1297 cc also, single SU, extracters and that is about the lot, goes in soon for a mild cam, porting and polishing and possibly cc ing. then I have to decide if I go for the webber or twin SU setup, do you have dificulties tuning twin carbies? Cheers, Dan.

Im from Dunedin New Zealand
Its not possible to bore a 1275 block out to 1297 The first step like mine is 1293 then the next takes it to 1310. Twin SU are easy to keep in tune, just as simple as a single carb. Youll hear alot about how hard they are to keep in tune as I have but Ive never heard it once from someone who has them, its always from people who are justifying staying with one. The mechanic who built my motor is really into SU's, he runs twin 1 3/4 from a rover V8 on his Drag racing mini thatll do a low 15. He even put SU's on an Early Toyota Starlet that he raced. Saying that itll go better with a Webber but even with teh spec of my motor I dont get good fuel consumption and with a webber I could halve that. If you want it for fun go for it, if its a daily driver I wouldnt reccomend it unless youve got deep pockets

Must be 1293 then, I have not long owned the car, and the bloke I bought it off told me it was bored to 1297.
I have a mate that has twin SU's and has no trouble with them eiher. Thanks for the advice, Dan.

Also it is only a weekend driver, if that.
I have a skyline as my day driver. should not really drive it daily, but it is such a nice car, and handles almost as well as the mini! Cheers, Dan.

I give up.I don't know why it won't work.
Anyways,it's just a bright yellow completely stock 1979 Mini 1000. It's nothing special....although it is a special little car!
