How long is a piece of string.

The cost will vary greatly depending on how the motor has been built.

You have to consider
- Head- what is it? whats been done to it?
- Cam- what is it?
- Gearbox- is it good? What is it? 3 syncro, 4syncro, rod or remote?
- How long ago was the motor built? When was it last run?
- Who built it? What parts did they use?

The cost of a decent 1275 motor in good running condition is about $3000
I had my motor rebuilt including the box for a tad over $4000, that does not include purchasing the motor and box in the first place. And its a fairly mild motor.

So to answer your question. Anywhere between $1000 and $10000.

The last complete 1100S motor I purchased was on ebay and I paid $450 for it. They are not as rare and valable as everyone makes out them to be.

Complete A+ 1275s are still available from various importers, they sell for around $1000/$1200 depending on how greedy the seller is.

I paid $1400 for a running in the car donk. I took it for a test drive before I pulled it out and it is a decent motor. It has a KAD quick shift, twin carbies, Gemini starter, pulsar dizzy and a few other goodies.
I thought it was a very good deal at that price so I grabbed it. I'd say any 1275cc donk on a rear box in half decent condition is worth around 1k, something ready to bolt in and run would be around 2-3k. If it has some really good stuff on it or it's over bored and making decent power that could be up to 5k and more.

1100S had a single HS4. Same manifold as the late 998 Clubby or 1275LS.

Is the body good? The car runs ok? Please don't wreck another 1100 just for a 1275 :cry:

There are precious few running examples now! Just get an A+ donk, and it will be newer to boot...

Cheers

Didn't the 1275 LS have a different manifold? I wouldn't know, mine come with twins and LCB's...

I've got a couple of 1275LS at work, the manifolds look the same to me.
One has had an HIF44 bolted onto the manifold with the 2 original studs only.

A+ motors from 198? on in UK got a different one, with an HIF44 carb.

1275 LS & 1275 Moke manifolds had a larger exhaust outlet, pipe & clamp.

looking at ebay this seems to be about right. But who knows if they sell or not? I never get the time to watch the auctions till they end.

But that said, I got a whole running, close to roadworthy car with 1100S motor for $3500.

I generally pay anything between $400 to maybe $1000 (at a stretch).
