Hi anyone had any experience with mini make overs engines or boxes? Looking to go 1275 in my deluxe instead of 1100

There was a discussion about them a while ago: viewtopic.php?f=2&t=76897&hilit=minimakeovers1275

The general consensus seemed to be that they had some questionable advertising, but everybody who has dealt with them thinks they're OK. I have never had any experience with them personally, so I can't comment myself.

My 1310 A+ engine + gearbox was done by them. It is a powerful engine and reliable. They've got decently priced parts and prompt.

Just put my 1310 in from them the other day. Started easily and sounds amazing. Good service. They are always happy to help.
