Marina disks

Post by Matt »

I have found a virtually complete marina in one of my local scrap yards (don't know what engine size, or anything else - didn't look). What parts would I have to remove to be able to use marina disks on the minor? and can I only use disks from a 1.3? (isn't the PCD also different?)

PCD is different - so you either have to use the ghastly marina wheels - or spend loads on re-jigging the hub.

If it is the 1.8 I'm still after a thermostat housing (different angle to the Minor...)

The engine will be a give-away ! A series, or B series !

But there are 2 different size B series engines in the marina.

Don't think so - just the 1800. There was a later 1700 - maybe in the Ital - but it wasn't really a B series.
