The Minor should have had a flat four as originally designed.

Has anyone ever tried putting a flat 4 in a minor?

Somebody on this forum was looking into building a 'mosquito' (prototype minor) a couple of years ago and was after suggestions for engines, he was going to cut the infamous '4 inch' strip out of a standard shell.
Did they ever get any further with it anybody know?

Sounds like a good way to ruin a perfectly good bodyshell

I dont think there are any that are easily suited to the minor appilcation.

Citroen GS had an air cooled flat 4 engine that could be persuaded to fit maybe.

I saw a picture somewhere of a Minor with a Subaru front subframe in front of it that somebody intended fitting somehow.

Isn't this a Chesil Speedster with a modded front end?
