David I noted in an earlier video that you had gone for the bigger 1.4 litre engine and box out of the latest model k11 micra, do you know if this is the same engine and box advertised in the 1.4 k12micra, many thanks jamie

The K11 1.4 is different to the K12 1.4, I am not sure if anyone has tried the later K12, it does seem to sit a taller in the engine bay, it would be good to know as they were built for much longer and in good supply.

@@davidlee4966 yes that's certainly true David the more recent k12 engines and cars can be had cheaper than the older k11, I'll have to hold out for the right car then I was hoping to be able to use a k12 engine but don't want to risk it now as theirs not much room for unexpected problems in the mini engine bay, I have made a flip front front end out of steel panels rather than using the fiberglass so I don't have the inner wings or anything to contend with, keep up the good work.
