1.2 carb and inlet and mechanical pump would be easier IMO but wont be much quicker than the1.0

i would go for the 1.2 carb but i want to do the full shbang ready for when i can afford a bigger engine

The 1.2i has the same power/torque as the 1.0 carb engine lol.

Go for the 1.2 carbed, indestructible engines :)

Iirc its easier to convert to mpi (assuming thats what you mean) with a 1.2 carb setup instead of the spi setup
Well i done the conversion to mpi for 1.2 carbed and it was easy enough
