Over the years alloy parts in an engine’s cooling system – particularly the thermostat housing – tend to corrode leading to unsightly green oxidation and eventually, coolant leaks.

Fortunately Mini Spares can offer a direct-fit replacement thermostat housing for early Minis and the Morris Minor. The Mini Spares part comes complete with a threaded take-off to fit a temperature sensor or electric fan controller, (just like the housing originally fitted to deluxe versions of the 850/998 Mini until 1968 that came with a temperature gauge).

This alloy thermostat housing can be ordered as part number 12A408 at £54.00 inc. VAT.

If the take-off is not required at the moment it can be blanked off with a Blanking Plug (ADP210 at £4.79 inc. VAT) and washer (1B3664 at 30p inc. VAT) both available from Mini Spares.

Over the years alloy parts in an engine’s cooling system – particularly the thermostat housing – tend to corrode leading to unsightly green oxidation and eventually coolant leaks.

In addition to the Mini Spares thermostat housing for early Minis also released this month (see separate press release) the company has a new thermostat housing for the very late Single Points Minis, automatic Minis and Japanese spec. cars where the outlet was moved 45 degrees further away from the engine compared to the old original 12G103 shape.

This style of thermostat housing was fitted to SPi Minis from 134456 onwards.

This offset alloy thermostat housing can be ordered as part number PEQ100690 at £41.40 inc. VAT.

Burton Power has two new engine mounts for the Mk1 Cortina and Corsair. The first is an uprated, direct fit mount set that improves engine stability while maintaining excellent road usability, unlike pure competition mounts. They have been manufactured with an uprated 65 Shore hardness rubber for increased strength and durability, and are suitable for pre-X/Flow and pre-711M X/Flow engines used in the Cortina Mk 1 and Corsair. They are also suitable for the Lotus Twin Cam engine as used in the Lotus Cortina and Escort Twin Cam.

The second version is for use when replacing pre-X/Flow engines in Cortina Mk1 and Corsair with the later Crossflow 711M Kent engine, which is approximately 10mm wider than the earlier pre-X/Flow blocks. These engine mounts have been developed to overcome this issue whilst bolting up easily and correctly.. They position the 711M Crossflow engine in exactly the same location as the original pre-X/Flow engine, ensuring that engine position, driveline alignment, and clearances remain unchanged.

The pre-X/Flow mounts can be ordered as part number MP354 at £119.50 inc. VAT per pair.
The Crossflow mounts can be ordered as part number MP355, also at £119.50 inc. VAT per pair.
