    I started watching your videos from the beginning of the Mongrel build, when you were in the cow shed, with the ambitious hope of posting daily. It's great seeing your progress with equipment, skills and projects to where you are now and you have improve to a proper workshop with excellent equipment. All I can think to say is congratulations on your advancement and thanks for sharing your journey. Looking forward to seeing the Mini racing.

    I could never claim to have any interest in welding - I’d never pick up a torch in anger, or for pleasure, but there’s joy to be had from seeing a job well done, so I’ll be watching the next one.

    That's awesome 👍🏻👍🏽 good you are painting things you're self and it gets better with doing more 👍🏻👍🏽, I went to a car racing event over the weekend was great to see all the old car's and old drivers there 😀👍🏻 talked to a few of them, the car's themselves are expensive but all the upgrades as well make them even more, they had mini racing, escorts, big V8s, old vintage race car's so cool, they have a meeting up and down the country here in New Zealand back again in December and January, it's a summer events so hopefully get to more meet's in future 😀👍🏽

    That lifting plate looks awesome, and would probably be welcomed within the mini community, but the only issue is that on fully steel fronted cars the engine needs to be lowered in tilted back, to clear the diff under the crossmember before you can lower it in, it'll work great on yours without a front though.....

    • @trevoradams7594
      @trevoradams7594 Год назад +2

      What I did when doing a lot of mini’s was smash the top off some spark plugs and weld some rings to the top of them which gave you a better angle for installing the engine.

    Hi Matt, could l ask you what make of Mig Welder are you using? I’m not particularly happy with the one I’m using at the mo. I’m an experienced stick welder & finding it rather frustrating that I’m having difficulty laying decent welds with this Mig. Needless to say I’m using it for welding thin sheet at the mo. Great seeing you’re tidy workmanship, I’m one of the rather rare fussy ones, it’s reassuring to witness quality workmanship. All the very best.

  • @chrisb8075

    Nice. There's an Irish guy does loads of Mini tuning on here, and he uses a similar bracket but with a specific angle built in to ease settling the engine onto the mounts. Worth a look.

    Any risk of bending those studs by lifting in that manner? Seems like the angles would produce some torque on them?

      That's how we used to do it at the Austin Rover main dealer in the 80's. Two brackets and a solid bar. Never really liked it myself. Still got the brackets in my tool box that I think came on a Gold-Seal recon engine.
