[Spridgets] Dumb Questions

[Jim F.]

Can somebody Help me.

Dumb Question # 1 . I am putting a 1970 mg 1275 engine in a 1960 BE. The 1275
has been recently totally rebuilt and bored to 1300 cc. I have the original
948 engine in the garage and it has an external mechanical Fuel pump. The 1275
has no pump or a place to mount one for that matter. Did the 1970 midget have
an electric fuel pump??


Dumb question # 2   I have 2 sets of Su Carbs, The one set is complete from an
original 948. The other set is from a later 1275 and they are missing the
connecting rod between the throttle plates. Can I use the earlier connecting
rod on the newer carbs??

Dumb Question # 3. Is there anything special about the water outlet on the
1275? I am planning on using the Original downflow radiator. Is the 948 water
outlet interchangable with the 1275?


Thank you in advance for your input.
