Talking with Graham Russell today, about ausmini and its Sydney members.
He suggested as he is doing a new Elder 8 port head at the moment, then building the motor, some of us might be interested in rocking around on a Saturday to watch it being power run on the engine dyno.
Not sure when, it is probably a month or more away. I said I'd post here to get an idea of interest.

He'll probably bung on a BBQ out front with some snags & onions etc.

Sooooooooooooo, who is interested? Don't kill me in the rush..

ps. there might be a `substantial' lucky door prize too, Mini performance related...

Yes. This is a new one, I had a look at the kit.
Comes with new pushrods, valves, springs, inlet manifold, not sure about exhaust.
You are looking at about $4K once fitted. :wink:

Made in Syd-e-ney...

I stuck my clammy fingers down its ports.. MMMM, Nice port work! :wink:

GR says these heads are now better than the Arden 8 port, and the AKM 7 port is a POS.
