You know it makes sense. Offset some of the cost by dispensing with the carbs and exhaust.....

its a 1260 with low comp pistons ,liners are quite thick so the bores will be stable ,plus loads of room for re bores when it goes bang

Nice build Hotrod, sensible size 1260cc as you say nice & stable with loads for rebores if necessary.
What size valves has the head got in it & who done the porting?

Just be sure to fit boost activated retard if you plan to go over 5 psi.
If you don't, then as you say you WILL be reboring it on a regular basis!
You'll also need at least one additional crankcase breather.

Nice project though.
