Have had these 1275E under dash storage shelf for yonks and thought I would fit one.
In the car
The engine went in fine, ran the car some kms, wanted to start the car, dead battery. So out with the old and in with the new, which I have wanted to do for a while in anyway.
Had to open the hole on the alternator bracket on the block up to 10mm due to that bolt size on the new alternator, also had a extended alternator bracket laying around so that was fitted with new next size up fanbelt.
Did some serious miles on the car about 250 kms for the last two days.

Own some minis, break them, fix them, improve them, test them to the limit....
