If you can't find a complete one cheap, keep an eye out for 1275 parts... blocks cranks rods etc. Also note a Morris 1100S or 1300 auto block (which have different oilways) can be modified to work on a manual box. I'm running one, is now a 1360. 
see http://www.ausmini.com/forums/viewtopic.php?t=1461 for details of mods needed. |

Thanks for replies. Have been checking all the usual spots and have already tried Josh, will go and see Meeni soon. Was not aware of his conversion. Thanks again. |

Hiya, I have a couple of spare 1100s (1275) auto blocks I may be persuaded to part with, although you may want something a bit more complete. They look pretty unmolested, and have their caps. cheers! jon |

So what happened when you contacted josh, i thought he had a few pallets of 1275 blocks at the factory. i saw at least 20 there about 18 months ago, if he sold them all, i hope there are more on the way, looking for one myself???:-):-):-) |

I was there 2 months ago and he had about6 engines, most of them sold. Stock is getting harder to find overseas and more and more people want the bigger engines here. |

Shipping is a killer, but as a bulk buy it wouldnt be too bad to get them from the UK, peeps selling complete power units 1330's for 400 quid! |

I won't be getting rid of mine for a little while (probably late this year) until my conversion is done but if you can hang on that long il let you know! |
