i have a med 1380 and im wondering how much it will cost to have it rebuilt?
the box is fine as is the diff so im guessing it would need new rings etc (it was gettin a bit smokey)
i would also be thinking of putting in a 275 cam into it and mabye a quaife atb diff

It all depends on what needs replacing and/or repairing Guy,

Normaly I find when I rebuild the likes of an MED 1380 it has only been fitted with a fixed duplex timing chain which does not alow for propper cam timing, if the milage and/or usage is high the main bearings will need a regrind.
Changing a cam is more involved than some people understand the valve springs have to be matched to the rising and falling rates of the cams ramp angels, the cylinder head valve sizes need to be mached the te cams inlet and exhaust durations and the compression ratio needs to be optimised to suite.

Generally a full rebuild to my Fast road Rally spec will work out at 500 euros labour + Parts and Machining
