I'd think someome one has a winter project needing a power unit. This is a spare no cost build for a four synchro remote S ratios Hardy Spicer outputs. 1293 .020 O/S bore 6 cc dish pistons, 940 big valve head with S 1.3 rockers. New billet Kent 510 cam bored, balanced, squared and decked. Health issues force sale of this very nice unit. I'm open to offers but lets not get silly. If you want it set up with twin 1 1/4 SUs or twin 1 1/2 SUs and test run at pickup we can do that. I may have to run south as far as Charleston SC and Charlotte NC or north east this fall and winter.

I still have this engine for sale. I also have a complete 1275 MG Metro power unit removed from a running mini driven several hundred miles to my location. Pulled to make way for Honda power. I can run either on my test stand if interested. The Metro can be rebuilt to any spec needed or plug and play. I don't like 1380s but money talkes. Thanks for looking. Steve (CTR)

Kind of thought that was a strange question myself. What you paid is not as important as what you will sell for. Must not be to interested I haven't heard from him yet. Steve (CTR)

You will find my contact info in my profile. Best we talk numbers off the board. This unit was custom built for customer and his health will no longer allow him to complete his project. We know what it cost to build and plan to not loose much in the transfer. Can be crated and shipped or picked up at my shop. Steve (CTR)

In the upper left corner of the box you typed your message there is a big green button for posting pictures. They have to be smaller than 3M. There's a way to post pictures bigger than 3M but its easiest to just reduce the size to 3M or less.

There's a "For Sale" section that might get you some additional views (it's also in the rules blah blah blah) lol. But really. When this thread gets bumped down because of lack of viewers, the ad will probably still net you better views.

You can also advertise on other sites like restorationmni.com where not only are there a bunch of guys restoring cars that would probably love to get their hands on a fresh 1275, but you can also post your build (sounds like you're going VTEC) and the rest of us will drool all over it. haha.

Good luck with the sale.
