Car Forum / MINI / March 2007Actual classic Mini question!
Strange as it may seem, I have a real classic mini question. I'm about to have rebuilt a 1098 motor. Is it worth the cost of boring it out, say, 20 thou oversize? I assume theoretically you would gain torque and low rev power which, for a road car, seems to be what is needed. What sort of gain do you get? Is there any disadvantage in going 40 thou? Also, I have almost decided on a 1 1/2" SU with rich needle, improved flow head with maybe 9.5:1 compression, 3-into-1 extractors and an RC40 exhaust. Any comments? > Strange as it may seem, I have a real little dick. > Is there any disadvantage in stretching it? > All the women laugh when I get naked. > Any comments?

The head and other changes wil give more gain. Maybe worth putting a better cam in while you're working on it?

Would a Cooper S cam, or its the modern equivalent, be the go? Graham >>if the bores etc. are not damaged, I don't think overboring is worth >>the cost (of new pistons).
