O.K.
New guy here. Owner of a '59 with a tired old 1098. I have been
looking
at pumping up a 1275. Will a 1500 fit in a Mk 1? I've never actually
looked at a 1500 to see if I can put it in the engine bay.
I know I'll get lots of emails back telling me the 1275 can produce much
more horsepower, but I'm still curious.
