    Bish bash bosh, love your work rate, who cares about the throttle bodies, we know what you mean, and they're bodies with throttles anyway so a fair description in my book, thanks for taking the time to film and share, I always look forward to your updates and watch yours before any of the hundreds of other channels I subscribe to.

    Nice. Always apricate you taking the time to film stuff. I wonder how many hours I've wasted trying to do CV joints without taking the boot right of. I think it worked a couple of times, but it wouldn't be many.....

    Allspeed and driveshaft angles 😩.. as you know from my spaceframe build are terrible, I’m also using allegro joints so lock wire was a great idea 👍🏻

      Yer shaft angle are quite important as well for cv life

    Them vauxhaul engines always look smart in the front ov a mini. What was it out ov a old astra. Where are you from Walsall or brum area. Good video I was waiting for u to get that engine back. I've always wanted one ov them redtop engines in my mini but I haven't finished my 1380 yet and I've spent some Doe on her over the years.

      I think it was a cav 4x4 motor originally

    Where did you buy the engine frame and how much was it mate

    • @skidmores.garage

      It’s a AMT frame mate and they went out of business many years ago. They pop up second hand every so often but they are super rare
