Hi all im new to this forum so hi :)

im building a Bmw twinky and im after a bit of advice on engine capacity ... i have two blocks avalible to me one is a standard 1275 A+.... and the other is a 1380 A+ block ...
My question is have many people done their twinkys to 1380 do they have any problems with head gaskets ... or any problems with it being so big ..

Thanks in advance Beanie

I'd go 1380, but if your going turbo, you may have problems getting the compression ratio low enough
