TWIN SU 1-1/4" REBUILD *John Cooper Conversion Racing Green* - Classic Mini Workshop Pt.4

[@recreativesigns4571]

What a great job on the rebuild. Watching this video I found out you are human after all, admitting that even you with your skill level that sometimes things can frustrate you; broken screws, threads etc… I admire the confession as you could have easily skipped past that part. Also nice that you have explained the costs and savings by having a go yourself. Hopefully I will see you and Mark on Sunday.

[@recreativesigns4571]

Can’t guarantee I’ll be the first there though 😂

[@classicminiworkshop]

Looking forward to it!

[@MiniMattTV]

They look absolutely fantastic mate! Beautiful job.

Remember the first time stripping an HS4 and the jet orifice was egg-shaped duento needle contact and so started a learning curve. Ace carbs! Nice job mate! 👌🏻

Well done mate, they look great! Definitely would've been thrown around the workshop with stress if i was doing that. 😆

[@edwardfothergill6156]

Well done that man.

[@dnf1903]

Hiya Keith-you must have some patience! Great saving though, they look superb. Can't imagine you angry...thought you were the iceman. Keep cool.

[@mk1leg]

nice job such a good feeling when it all goes together

[@surfblue63]

When centring the jets it is best to remove the dashpot damper and push the piston down with a pencil. That way you know that the piston and needle are fully home in the jet, and the jet will be centred when the lock nut is tightened.

[@classicminiworkshop]

Good tip, thank you

[@peterdemetriou2263]

They look absolutely amazing, can’t wait to see the racing green in the flesh Sunday 👍

[@classicminiworkshop]

Just don't look to hard at the decals on the rear 1/4 panels LOL

Hi Keith, looks like you've done a fantastic job on those twin SU's and for a great price too!

Anyway look forward to seeing the JC running in ya next video hey! Great stuff as always 😊

[@classicminiworkshop]

Apart from being a bit of a sod to rebuild and fit it's been well worth it.

[@paulrobinson3528]

You need to put some silicone along the back of your bench mate

Great job But i will stick forever to the single HIF 44 What a pig of a job 😖

[@classicminiworkshop]

They are nice to have but I agree, a lot less hassle with a single HIF
