Gen 1 MINI Cooper S Build - Engine Removal and Tear Down 

That's hilarious you made your own tool for the belt tensioner 😂😂 i used a long screw driver and a pry bar, and my dad to put an Alan key in the hole 🤪

Subbed. I have an 05 and just did a mini-overhaul of the front subframe (no pun intended).

can't get the rear thermostat housing bolt off for the life of me.... hehe great build here!

where did the engine removal go? you pull the trans too?

Have you got fill troy headers into a straight thru pipe to muffler

crusty engine lads
