1275 A+ Block Wanted

Hi All,

As per the subject, I'm looking for an A+ 1275 engine block. Prefer inline but can cope with a transverse one.

Condition unimportant as it will be going big bore & long stroke.

Complete engine considered.

Thanks
Nick

Did you have a chance to check your mates "stock"?

There are differences but nothing I can't get around.
Main ones are the crank is different, I'll be using a new long stroke one &
there are some holes that need drilling to fit the backplate.
