Post subject: | virgin 1275 block |
i have a virgin 1275 block (bare with end caps), 2x 1275 cranks (one needs polishing and one needs regrinding) and 040 flat top pistons and i was wondering roughly how much they are worth as i am thinking of selling them, or should i get some s rods and a head. also if i do use the 1275 engine are the gearboxes the same as the 998 ones? |

A 1275 block (non S) and caps, std bore- probably worth $300-400. Cranks- it depends on sizes they are now. Measure them. Get them cracktested too, as many now have cracks in. Pistons if S/H are worth zip really. A 4 synchro box is the same whether it has a 1275 on it or a 998-1098. 1275 will drop straight on and clear. Just use a 1275 primary gear. This applies whether it's a remote, or rodchange. Many 3 synchro boxes need a bit of a grind to clear the crank, but the real early ones (850)- forget it. These days for ease of use on the road and parts availability I would forget any 3 synchro box, anyway. ![]() |
