The MED rocker cover looks great! I had the same issue where the rockers were hitting the cover. I used a dremel and carefully took out some of the inside material to clear each rocker. It worked OK 👍 May work on the original rocker cover you have.

Where can I get this conversion? How much does set you back? Can you apply it on a 998cc engine? Cheers!

Great job. Good luck getting the time and weather right for the MOT.

Hello Keith. I am new to your channel (recently subscribed). Also new to Classic Minis as a hobby... I have some content ideas related to Minis only. Not sure how to reach out to you in priv. But would like to share idea. Please get in touch.

Great job Keith from start to finish should be proud of yourself looking forward to what's next great video

Nice one Keith - We are always learnig from you..

tHanks for this. I've been daydreaming ways I could adjust my Ridgeline wheels. I like your " do it yourself " sentiment. tHanks again!

Great Video Keith What size wheels are you using??

Make it tuned by AC Dodd ! 😉

Why don’t install an AFR gauge?

Not used tracking gauges like that since the 80s 🤣 All you need to do now is do the tracking on the steering wheel it self 😂😂 then move to the rear wheel's 🤔

200th on the like button lol. Must admit, that's a nice looking engine bay. Wonder why Rover didn't use a flat style rubber gasket? So who you getting to do a rolling road tune?

What's the next mini project then?

Hiya Keith-love that RG. Shame you finished it just when you don't have the weather to enjoy it. Keep well.

Another great update on the BRG, it's always best to run a new engine build slightly on the lean side to allow the piston rings to bed in correctly, the engine sounds nice ( but i would say that anyway lol ) 👍👌

Your need another project soon lol

Sorry Keith, still watching Part 92 🤣

What’s next on the project list keith?

Full steam ahead once it’s gone for an MOT. Great insight on how to set up the tracking.

Beautiful 1275 GT Mark. Sad that you've got to sell your van though.

Great video and thank you Keith, your channel is the gold standard for entertainment, guidance and knowledge!

Hope you get it back

Did he or didnt he buy it?

Have you thought about machining the original Metro style rocker cover to fit those horrible MED roller rockers? I would have fitted the 1:3 rockers. You can get them to line up with the valves by using shims that Mini Spares supply.

Charles looks so good, the front arch to wheel gap is so low! Saying it’s gutless, maybe it could do with a foot tune up, it might surprise you, but comparing to your other cars it would always feel slow 😅

I have two Minis with that style of brake servo. Both emit a loud hiss when breaking the seal on the master cylinder (even when the engine hasn't run for a few days) so it is fairly obvious that the vacuum is being maintained. Both have single O-ring seals. Those MED roller rockers seem to generate a lot of issues so I'm not sure I can be bothered with that particular upgrade.

Why is life never straight forward 🤦‍♂️. I bet you wish you checked for the leak location before you ordered the servo. It looks great with or without the splash guard (carbs are more obvious with the guard on). Can I ask re re-torque the head, do YOU release one nut 90degrees and then re-torque or just re-torque? And do you start at the center and work your way out? Thanks 👍

Looks lovely what is the next project

Fascinating your passion with attention to details truly is a level not seen very often , I suppose having a transparent splash guard would give you the best outcome if indeed they actually make such an item , you would probably want one that had led lighting also , brilliant video as always, the engine bay is just unbelievable. Thank you , take care .

Very nice Keith. As to expecting MED to listen to you and make changes I have zero faith, based on my poor experience with poor quality parts supplied by them that I had to return to them, certainly not the company they used to be.

That does look nice, is it still a 998 or closer to 1100 now?

Hiya Keith-it looks superb. Sounds brilliant too! Keep well.

Pozdrawiam super!!!

Expensive parts Keith. My MG Metro alloy cover fits perfectly. I only had to notch it for the 11 stud head. I polished mine with a metal polishing kit and then brush coated Alocrom 1200 for protection. Keep it looking good. Ps my 1.3 roller rockers are quiet and one of the pluses of fitting them. I used facing washers to line them up centrally on the valve stems. I would leave the splash cover off, especially as you will be mostly running it in the 'summer ' 😊

Engine bay looks outstanding Keith. First class.

I watched a video on these, the rollers may not line up with the rockers, something to watch out for

Sounds really good Keith great video

Looks very nice indeed 👍

I wasn’t too sure about this car at first Keith, but now it’s done I really do like it, a lot!

Have you considered doing a video with AC Dodd.....maybe get those twin SUs finessed?

The servo twists apart.

An unboxing I spy.

Hi Keith, Thanks for the detailed tutorials again!!! Just a quick question...... On my Spi Cooper my Wings & Front End appear to be in pretty good condition but I need to replace the flitch panel and possibly the shuttle panel. Is it possible to do this without replacing the entire front end?

gday mate. love the vids. keep them coming. quick question where did you get the wing covers from. i have recently resprayed the car and they would be a great addition to my garage to protect the paint work

Timeless classic that one. 👍
