First off the 1500 will not fit. There is a recess in the front cross
member of a 1500 Midget for the spitfire engine front pulley, I know a
guy who tried like hell to fit it but gave up.
It is easier to fit a GM V6 in a sprite then a 1500 engine.
Also all the wiring is on the other side too.
Daniel was correct in that a 1275 (or any A series) will fit in a 1500
engine bay but not the other way around without series frame mods.
