Anybody got 1275GT A series block kicking around. It's for a period build. Ideally unmolested.

Seeing as these are in immense demand by the Historic racing boys, how rich are you feeling ?

Metric is for people who can't do fractions.

Think I have one that would probably need sleeving - would need to check out exactly which block it is though.
Are there any specific casting numbers you're looking for? or just an A-series 11 stud block with solid tappets?

Yep nothing specific. 1275 A series, it's going in a mk1. Going 73.5 bore.

I have one it's a 1330, bare with caps.

Been drilled for undercrown cooling, tapped for dry deck and oil plugs. Also stress relieved a bit.

I messed about with it before realising what it could be worth.

No idea on value!

I don't think mine will be any good then - it's at 73,5 mm now and although freshly bored & honed I think there is a mark in the bore. I'll check though.

No ribs on the front and no tappet chest on the back. It's not a special block as such. Just a pre a+ 1275 that's not a Cooper.
