- We run you through this week a start to finish job on a Mini 1275 engine. Join us every day this week for an update on the engine rebuild progress to see what’s involved in an engine build like this

Great video, looking forward to seeing all the bits bolted up. If you have any questions on the parts feel free to give us a call.
Hi MED. 👍
Great video's like watching them entertaining and educational never had an engine rebuilt always sold them on but to see the work involved and the skill is amazing to see
I use David Vizards Oil Extreme Special Race Engine Break in Lube.
Absolutely fantastic ring seal and cam life on Ford Kent X-Flow 200 bhp engine
That is a name a blast from.thr past. Spoke to him online a while back, one of his videos at the trade college he was teaching at in USA. Used to live in the Oxford area, moved to dryer US due to lung problems I believe. Knows his big block US engines, as well as Minis etc. A-series.
Great video. Video every day well I won’t be moaning can’t wait 👍🏻👍🏻 would be nice to see mini engine in the car and running will look the nuts 👍🏻
Love the ongoing work on the Mini 1275 engine. I plan to follow it through. It's good to see a perfectionist at work.
Such a brilliant channel showing pure perfection engineering! Not a laptop in sight! I just wish I had something tasty that I could give you guys something to make amazing again! Keep up the great work!
6 o clock ⏰ in the morning sitting in my freezing cold lorry watching engine videos 🤔🤔. Keep them coming bro 😎
Very interesting about the deglazing, never thought of that, thanks mate for another great video.
I have just found your channel and I am really enjoying it. I used to live in England for my first 23 years then moved to Canada. I worked on cars since I was 13, the reason was my father was born deaf and could not hear himself over revving the poor engine, it was a Ford 1172cc side valve with a 3 speed gearbox.
I now work on Diesel engines in pickup trucks, my own is a GM Duramax LML 6.6 litre, big difference but still a engine in the long run. Keep up the video’s, thanks.
Hello great work ! waiting for the next one 👍
looking forward to seeing the A+ motor being built.
Keep the videos up, love the content.
If your fitting the a cam (270) he needs to do a bit of work around the inlet valves and match up the ports to manifolds specially the exhaust ports they look restricted, you can see the carbon build up around them
That'll be a cracking engine once its built. Be nice to see it once it's in the car. .
As the others have said a Great video and something everyone should see how much goes on.
Cool video !' I have a mini one it was so great to watch. Please keep up dated with the boat engines
Interesting about the hard spots in the bores ...I rebuilt a small Diesel generator engine ( Kubota) and after busting the glaze and putting in new pistons and rings, the engine burnt oil from the minute it fired up, and after several attempts to get it running clean without success, I gave up, and eventually the customer bought a new engine which of course solved the problem. I never did know the reason why it would not settle down and run clean.
Love the channel and enjoy the workshop videos, but can't help feeling that the best bit is missing. Do you have any plans to show some of the detail behind the machining and assembly steps etc?
Would love to see some of the machining in action.
he dosent how to use them
Piper cam and arp studs on an injected mini sounds well nice :o) Those cylinders are waaaay to close together to be healthy :o
Ive always loved the A+, surprised your using standard rockers though.
Have you had much involvement with the vw t4 2.4 engines at all?
On the inaccessible diesels, will you replace the freeze plugs? I know they would be an obnoxious task if they failed after re-installation. tom
Nice update, which piston manufacturer are you using? I'd imagine nural as the engine is pretty much fast road spec, also, what is the profile of the cam as the SPI ECU's are fussy with cam choice, I use MED a lot for upgraded bits, excellent quality stuff....cheers, Paul 👍
Great video of the mini engine
If your uprating the cam should you do a mild porting of the head to get the beniefit?
Yes we are going to mildly port the head Dave, thanks for watching 👍👊
Presumably the cam bearings are still in spec?
My god I never realised the cylinders were so close! It’s so thin between bores! 😳
Ohh.....them nissin Soba cup noodles are good.
Ever thought of Laser cleaning ?.
Barum Engines,
We do it right.
Cause we do them TWICE.
Or 3 times
Again, thanks for the view pal 👍
wow
nice!!! bits lol
The red is terrible. Paint it a colour suitable for the car.
You always have issues
