well if your going to SC it.. then I would be looking at building it around the right compression ratio.. so the right pistons.. so good head work.

get a cam grind, all depends on what $$ you can play with

I am pulling my 1310 of this week. just to give it a xmas gift.. and I spend 1400.00 easy on new rockers, belt drive, cam followers, gaskets and seals, central oil pick up and a few other things. adds up quick... :oops:

I'm not attacking you or anything so dont take this the wrong way, but in the nicest tone I can possibly type I think you Avatar is pushing the boundaries a littlle.

OK lets get back to talking 1275 rebuilds cause I've got one on the cards myself.

if you`re going to super charge it then go for "STRENGTH"---> the large journal crank,,,A+ rods, low comp ratio (about 8.5:1 should be sweet) forced induction specific cam shaft & some strong mother pistons without going too big in the bore for the sake of bore flex

make sure the box & drop gears are totally sweet, heavy clutch (orange diaph) & quallity plate etc

i`d stick with a tallish F/D ratio as it gives the blower something to push against (maybe a 3.4:1 or 3.2:1 But no taller as it can kill the accelleration too much) that is if you`re on 10" wheels

maybe a decent elctronic dizzy , a motha carb/manifold combo & huge arse exhaust system to let it all outa there...when you`re getting crap loads of the stuff in there real quick, then the big problem is letting it all get back out just as nice

:-)

& i know this guy called Matt TheMiniMan in Murarrie who can build it for you :-)

Oh, dam,,,that`s me :-)

mate in all honesty the only person i let touch my car in se qld is Matt Read the mini man
he is a wealth of knowledge and i have been going to him for ages and theres never been a prob he aint fixed with my cars
hes never built me a complete engine but he is known and respected highly as an engine builder ask around
give him a bell if your serious and want an engine to last
