    You might not believe me, but you guys have no idea how long i've been looking for this video. I'm about to cry that I finally found it. I love it. It haunted my mind a couple years. Hypnotising

    That’s the best sounding A-series I’ve heard, I know the camera is close to the TB’s but the engine actually has some top end grunt. Great build👍

    As a raver back in the 80s I built crazy minis too, the craziest was a 296 kent cams 1293, fully kitted, it made about 122 Hp, This arden eight port would put it to shame though. Still happy to see someone wanting to make the most of the best car ever made :)

      I still look like an old goth .. people are surprised that I have a 1430 mini that 122 hp I built it in my bedroom when I was 17 years old. Still now I look like a fucking idiot but when people talk to me about cars engine is minis, I tie them in fucking knots .. I guess it’s strings to the bows .. never be boring

    you can see the swirl even when at low slide openings (fuel circling anti-clockwise on slides) but DEFINITELY at full slide opening... I'd like to see the Reynolds number for the intake set-up... but... it doesn't take a whole lot to see that this thing riiiiiiiiips!

    • @hdbhehddbz
