Hey guys,
I have a classic Austin Mini. The motor is knocking so I am going to do a VTEC swap. Recommended motor is B16 but is there something else that would be easy to source that is the same dimensions? Looking to go manual trans and stay right hand drive.

Thinking of K20?

Power goals are about 200hp NA but am considering all options including a small turbo. Going from 35hp so 200 should be plenty. The Mini is daily driven so I don’t want to build a race car. Already have a few toys.



Thanks,
Colin
