You cant bore a 1000 or 1100 out to 1275 cc, they have different bore centres or sumthing like that
You also will struggle to fit two twin choke webbers on a mini, ive personally never seen it done, even to fit a single sidedraught webber you have to muck around with the bulkhead as its too close.
You are wrong man people in NZ bore minis out to 1440, and if by a slight chance you are right about not being able to bore a mini to 1275, then you just get an engine from an Austin or MG 1300 which has bigger valves. You also take the 1300 gearbox which ways about twice a mini one so then you are able to develop power. Also you can fit twin sidedraft webbers on a mini as all the 140hp racing minis in NZ do have them. Sorry I meant front wheel discs from a honda city which is a very easy conversion to make.

yo flyby b.itch, if you are so sick of the thred why do you keep looking at it and adding to it. u should stop living off the government and get a job so you can get a datsun of your own. Then u mite stop giving other people ####.
PS i bet if you took the ultimate survey it would say that you are mechanically inept.

go for the mini, sounds like a great buy, I currently have a mini which is (currently) pretty stock. Minis are the #### for handling they are awesome, already low with hard suspension. If you want a fun club racer for not much money minis are the way. To start developing power for not much cost this is what you need to do: get a 1300 (big valve) engine from an MG1300 of bore the origional engine to that size, get a hot cam, port the head, add extractors, put a twin carb manifold with twin choke side draft webbers. all relatively cheap mods and you develop about 90-110 HP. with wide-wheels and 4 wheel discs it should be a force to reckon with. However if you were to do the same modifications to you datsun you would definently davelop more power. The choice is really yours.
