Some modifications will need to be made to Scrappy for 'the Monte' so I consulted experts from the early days of Mini competition to find out about preparation back then. Firstly, the late John Aley, Mini racer and Aleybars rollcage manufacturer from his MiniWorld interview in 2004: "Daniel Richmond of Downton Engineering had a most creative attitude towards the regulations. For instance, he would re-forge the Mini's inlet valves using the original metal, but spreading the valve head to achieve a larger diameter. He therefore gained airflow when the inlet port was opened out to match it. He also re-profiled the 850's camshaft to the shape of the much hotter 948 camshaft."
