There will be a bigger gain in torque with a 1275 (or 1330)

You will hardly find any 1275 blocks around on their original bore
- just take to the next oversize, 1310 , 1330

I was thinking 1330 with sc12 running through a weber or delorto ... but kinda heard that a 998 with an 1100 head was good too?

good luck getting it to work with a webber or dellorto..i'd like to see it done 8)

a 998 may be good, might make similar power to an Naturally Aspirated 13XX...

It will work fine with a Weber or Dellorto, suck-thru is easiest with a S/C.
But a big SU just as good I reckon.

Size? 1275-1330. Over that the cylinder walls are a bit thin for forced induction.

mnmmn i just looked at the results and zero for 1100s i would have thought behind a big block this would be the go because of its torque which it has standard

i would love to try one on a worked 1100
