Dont know - your major problem is the fitting of the heater to to the fire wall and under the parcel tray. The "hooks" can be made easily enough and pop riveted to the firewall - welding is better but.....

Physically though, the hoses and the like will all mate up to the engine. and the heater. Just pick up a switched power wire for the fan.

I'd grab a MiniMatic freshair one, they were used on 850 and Deluxe as an extra. Going price for s/h daggy ones is $50.
Aaron has one for sale done up, $70. See for sale forum.:wink:

I'll swap a fresh air heater for your moke one! Cause I want the room for a booster.

Can put the booster under dash, then there's no need to move it whenever motor comes out. 8)

Ah the logic of Mini ownership. Heater in the engine bay and brake booster in the cabin! :lol: I'm tempted to look into braided lines to and from the booster, so that you can move it out of the way for engine removal. You can get em for the clutch, maybe they'll fit.

I have a Moke heater in my car, fits the same as a Cooper S heater but the coolant pipes are on the other side (I think). I don't have the hooks on the floor but made some brackets that hang it from the lower dash.
