Can anyone recommend a machine shop is Brisbane that knows about Mini engines ?
Will need a crank grind, block bore and some balance work, I am sure pretty much any company should be able to do it, but someone who does a nice job and knows Minis is always good.

Thanks

Stewart.

Try Matt Read in Murrarie. He is a lovely bloke and contributes a lot on here. He will be able to sort you out, even if he does not machine in house per se.

I have found them very good, excellent quality workmanship. They have machined Mini engine parts for me for a number of years. I know Matt Read uses and recommends them, but I'll let Matt speak for himself.
They completed a Mini 1275 crank grind and engine bore for me last week.
