Hey guys and Gals

I have been on the search for a mini for some months / years and loose track of what I have seen etc... BUT over the weekend became a mini owners and would like to scratch you guys for parts and advice over the next few months


Now sure yet on the year But I got myself a Mk1 850cc it has most of its chrome bits and 2 door cards, interior is not bad at all to start

1st question the engine needs to be rebuild and I was wondering if putting a 1275cc is a straight swop out and would anyone suggest this or not...
Reason for the 1275 idea is they are far more available and thus parts and repairs will be easier to do as well. or is the original 850 engine viable for modern suburb traffic?

My boss has decided to add a Mini to his collection of Ford Model A and T cars. A pickup, specifically. This vehicle holds a fair amount of nostalgia behind it, as the first company car he ever owned was a Mini pickup. He'd wanted one of these vehicles for a while, but just couldn't find the right one. That was until I stumbled upon this one on Gumtree in November last year. Bought sight unseen and was told to go and fetch it - about a 1500km round trip. 

The day it was fetched :



It's a 1967 model, thus has the Australian type doors. It's been fitted with a later 99H type 1000cc at some point. Generally a good vehicle, with no rust or body damage. It does, however, need some mechanical work, which I'll get into shortly.

The first day it was back, it had the original company stickers from the mid 90s put on, along with some new tyres :



And sat next to one of the newer company pickups :



Already had it on the hoist and found some prior repairs/maintenance that were rather 'interesting'. Having looked through the vehicle, pretty much the entire braking system has to be replaced. New parts have already been ordered and received. Will hopefully be getting stuck into this vehicle shortly.

Does anyone have any thoughts/ recommendations on an electric fuel pump to use?

I've had my engine rebuilt to 1330 with a high torque cam, will be using an HIF44 carb - car will be for road and occasional track day use. The engine has yet to be fired up.

I was set on going with the Facet Fast Road Solid State pump on Minispares (4.5-5psi/ 18 gallons per hour) (part no ss502) but once I started googling it seems this might be too high pressure and i might be better off with the "standard" facet (2.5-3psi/ 12 gallons per hour)(part number SS501).

Has anyone had any success with any of the locally available elec fuel pumps that they would recommend?


Thanks for the help.

A good few years ago my dad purchased a 'gts engine from someone, however the small amount of info that I could find hasn't been very helpful. Did the gts have a cross drilled crankshaft, as well as 3 compression rings and bigger inlet valves(35.6mm)? None of the above mentioned details are present in the engine we have expect for the blocks identification tag that says 12H-GTS. Also can anyone identify this camshaft? Camshaft is spline driven.
