hmm. Each to their own.
I saw British Leyland and was all psyched up to give you +rep for posting some form of Triumph motor, but then I see a metro. This thread makes me sad :(
Wow old skool dude, i used to have a metro GTi for a while obscenely quick for a 1400, there was a lad round here a while back with a 1800 vvc metro GTi that was played with and used to pass scoobies regularly lol
Novafusion has a pair of these round the corner from his house, two brothers own them, ones an 1800 vvc on throttle bodies and the other is a turbo iirc im sure he will clarify:thumb:
theres one of them down ere..totally standard looking. i can see how much work it was to get it too fit as wellQuote:

Thanks Joe
A whistle! They look like a whistle turned upside down.
I like these. When I was looking for my first car I was looking for either a Mini, Metro GTA or a Nova and bought the first nice one I came across which happened to be a Nova. These disappeared from the used ads almost overnight after that.
Ah shes a beauty gunny!! i love these old metros, probably because of my love for the mini and A series engine as you know! what head are you going to use? i here people are using the heads from an 1100cc bmw motorbike, maybe something for you to look into? i think there maybe a guy round here selling a metro gta been on his drive for a while now.
Cheers guys, Ben, since you pointed me to turbo minis ive been looking into the 16v K1100 head, its an idea but ive not decided yet, looking at the cpec i want, with a 16v head im looking at 200+hp easy. Thanks for the pointer dude those guys really are helpfull like you said, they've cleared up everything i wanted/need to know.
