1275 engine block questions

[Danny Roff]

hey, i have been offered choice of an A series 1275 block and an A+ 1275 block for FREE to build an engine for my traveller its running th original 1098 at the moment but im looking to build the 1275 to put in while i rebuild 1098

i understand about new gearbox, brakes etc and these are being done also as the year goes on

please just advise as to which would be the better starting block (get the pun) for the project

thanks for the time
