David,
Judsons were made for 948 and 1098 engines but I am pretty sure they were not
made for 1275's. I have heard of folks who have mated Judsons to 1275's but
it is not a just a bolt it on task. For one thing the breather pipe coming
off of the timing cover is in the way of the drive belt; if you use the
proper crank pulley. I also think there are several other "little" problems
to overcome in order to succeed in that mating.
I am looking at putting our Judson on a 1275 just because I am crazy enough
to like the challange of finding a nice way to get them together and maybe
get over 100 hp out of the engine. This is a long term project and may not
happen for a while.
