The whole 1100 thing is a misnomer
The 1100S actually had a 1275 instead of the 1098
It is a standard 1275 motor, which is a good thing

| Post subject: | 1100's motors? |
Hey guys, (and girl's sorry) i'm just looking up engine numbers and the like, and i see that according to : http://www.minis.com.au/ Ive got a 1100's motor in my van. Now i know i have heard something about them being good things to have. Is that because they are an 1100 bore in a 1275 block? and therefore are more likely to give a few extra rebuilds? Or is there some other reason? number is : 12y/Ta/h8591 |

i think the doc or morris 1100 (even simon k) will have this info Early ones had a small journal, crossdrilled crank with Cooper S rods, never seen one factory fitted with an S EN40B crank though. |

Ok thanks all. I guess there are some misconseptions floating around re 1100's motors. But i think the conclusion is..... On a motor that has already been recond and transplanted into another mini, then left is a shed for 7 years till the rings rust to the barrel's. There aint nothing special about it
Gee i hope there is still room for a rebore. mad-mk1. I bought it about 8 months ago.. So it may be the one you saw. Was in on consighnment at Moris mania then mini sport thats all i know. I got it from the latter. |

Plenty of scope for rebores on these- can get pistons in +.020", 040, 060, 094 (73.0mm) and .115 (73.5mm). Used to be able to get 74mm too but they've gone , like the dodo.
