Yes, S. Calif. and I don't even know if its seized or what is
right/wrong with it, it came in a pile of parts that I got.
And to the other post about a 1275 being much more desirable than a
1098, its not to me because I already spent $2k+ rebuilding my 1098 with
all new parts and machining. And I mean everything new! I built it
hoping it will last my lifetime so while a 1275 would have been smarter
and better, I have a 1098 and that is that. No need for the 1275.
Once I get the car on the road, I will likely try and get rid of the
1275 and 3 or 4 ribbed gearboxes, keeping one motor and gearbox for
spares junk. My original motor came from the junkyard and the other 2
motors I got only because I wanted to one motor for all the exterior
bits I did not have and one gearbox and the guy said all or nothing, so
I got 2 motors and 4 gearboxes for free. I assume everything is trashed
and useless but I got all the bits like generator brackets, manifolds,
etc. off of them for mine.

Is it seized? I would sell it if it's rebuildable. Someone should grab it so
it doesn't get rusted up.
Where are you Mike? CA if I remember correctly.
