Hi to all,
As title really can I use a 1100 crank in an A+ 1275 engine? Pros cons?
Thanks in advance
John

no, the small bore 1100 crank main bearing journals are smaller. There is the South African 1100 big bore crank though which will work

So when some joey comes on here about how his 16v turbo vauxhall is great compared to ours, he can be given the 'bird'...

Aren't the SA lumps large bore, short stroke 1100?

Assuming you mean the small bore long stroke 1100, then as Sprocket says, no.

If South African short stroke large bore, yes.

In the 13's at last!.. Just

but then you don't get 1275 annymore? so what is the use of it? making a high rev engine?

you can do anything if you set your mind to it...
i rather blow it up winning than keep it together losing.

finish date set for project 1... march 2018

And if one were to fit a 16v head and turbo it, no doubt an impressive piece indeed.
