Yeah I know that... I want to know if there is anything else worth taking off?

The cam I know is hotter, but I have no need for it.

Use everything apart from the cam and pistons. The cam will be just like a standard one in a 1330, not that they are ovaly sporty in a 1275.

Unlucky, I threw 3 out a couple of weeks back because they are junk IMO, you should have posted a wanted for them and you could have had them for postage cost :w00t:

Well ok then...

No point me using the whole lot, as I am getting a short engine from Morspeed, 1330.
I was going use the block etc, as exchange... and I was going to get the head tweaked, (gas flowed etc to stg3).

Other than, the rest is scrap to me, as I have 2 1275 lumps... one for surcharge/exchange, and one for bits, nigher engine I will use again.

When I say I am not going to use anything else... depends what the differences are between a MG 1275 block, and a Normal 1275 block... could ask Morspeed to use my block...

There is absolutely no difference between an MG Metro Block and any other A+ 1275 metro block ( maybe with the exception of the Turbo )
