Gday I know with Cooper s oil pumps the slot drive shaft is longer. Is this the same for all 1275s? And also what happens if you have a spider drive cam? Is the shaft on that longer as well if going into a 1275 ? Thanks fellas and gals

Yes the pump recess in the block is shallower on all 1275s except automatics.
If you have a spider drive cam you just use a spider drive pump. Ditto for a slot drive cam. To use either of these pumps in an S block you need to drill and tap one hole, 1/4" UNF.
(Edit) Cooper S pumps are very expensive now. You can convert a pin drive cam to slot drive by TIG welding an adaptor into it. Then use a 1275A+ slot drive pump.

So just to clarify doc if I have an 1100s block I still need an extended shaft on the pump regardless of the whether it's a Cooper s block or not? And can you buy spider drive oil pumps that have a longer shat than ones on small notes? Cheers

If you have an 1100S block with a spider drive cam, you need an 1100S spider drive (splined shaft) pump, or use a 1275A+ pump and a DrMini spider adaptor. This converts a spider drive cam to use the slot drive pump.

The terms `long shaft, and short shaft' only really applied to the Cooper S (long shaft) and the 850-997-998-1098 (short) which all used pin drive pumps.

Here's the 1275A+ slot drive pump and a spider adaptor.
Karcraft stocks them, or contact me.

And as I mentioned above, a pin drive camshaft converted to slot drive. Before TIG welding the (re-machined) spider adaptor in.Image

I have a spare spider drive pump but haven't got a cam as yet. Was thinking of having a chat to GR about that. If I get a spider drive cam will my pump fit straight away or will it need modding?

Fits straight in. But you need the standard 1100S spider for your splined shaft pump. Not sure if still available new, except from http://www.aptfast.com in USA.
But I have a good s/h spider here, yours if you need one.

(Edit) 1100S spider is on its way.

Or,,, you can just buy a late "Spade-Drive" type camshaft, then simply fit the late 1275 hi-vol spade-drive pump & bolt them both in
easy-peasy
