Its just not worth the extensive modification to a mini engine when a marina or sprite etc will fit.

If you are after an increase in power but still want to retain the A-Series, then a good starting point is the Morris Ital engine (1275), as this is A+ and provides a good strong base to build a good unit. The marina and sprite engines seem to be getting a bit thin on the ground from scrapyards, but the later Ital still crops up every now and then!!
