Ok so I found a local guy near me selling a head from an R53. I was going to buy it and do some head work. I was going to hog out the ports and port match, do a cam and some good valves and springs. I am sure some of you have done this. Still new to minis here so my question for you is it a good modification for these cars? Like do they respond well to being ported and whatnot? Is there other things I have to factor in with this mod? I will also be doing a pulley and injectors, CAI and a tune plus others.

Thanks
