To strap or not to strap, that is the question pic 1 . What the question should be is, why is a strap necessary General folklore has it that it is there to strengthen the centre main cap, helping to resist breakage when the engine is used at higher rpm as the crankshaft flexes more, knocking the main cap about. Many engine builders fit them as a reflex when building up-rated engines. Others consider them unnecessary. Why the split Engines do not break themselves, they get broken. The only...

Job Well Done

Name Mark Learmonth Car 1968 Cooper I just thought I'd show you some pictures of my car. I finished restoring it in mid 2010 and I'm hoping to get some good feedback. I basically started from nothing and worked my way towards a standard looking Mkl Cooper, but the engine work is quite extensive as with the running gear. It's a 1968 Mkl Cooper running a 1380 with 108bhp, I kept the body fairly original, though. I did the restoration work myself, so there were a lot of blood, sweat and tears and...

Following on from your article about Minis around the world in the December issue, we met with Mike Guido and his wife Rhonnie in Florida in November 2010. They picked us up in their Metro diesel and took us to their home to see their collection of Minis. We then went in convoy with three other Minis to Cocoa Village for lunch and on to the Ron Jon Surf Shop in Cocoa Beach before heading back to our Hotel. We had a fantastic day with great Mini owners and would highly recommend meeting foreign...

Blue skies accompanied the 'other' London to Brighton run as did 1200 doughnuts. A freezing cold December was interrupted by a surprisingly sunny Sunday for the London and Surrey Mini Owners Club's annual Donut Run. More than 75 Minis took part in this informal winter version of the London to Brighton run, which involved a whopping 1200 Krispy Kreme doughnuts. Beginning at the McDonald's on Purley Way in Croydon, club members were given free run plaques and doughnut vouchers before heading...
