spent a few hours fabbing and welding these EPO's up- 1.500" OD x .060" wall tubing. a nice clean path for exhaust gasses that is port matched to head by removing a bit of port roof area. the flanges draw the ring down to compress the gasket and seal the lathe turned tube ends to head steps. will build custom dual exhaust later of the same diameter and weld straight to these stubs.
intakes were port matched to the carb boots and generally smoothed up maintaining a roughened finish for atomization, and guide bosses on all ports were eased to remove some of the the large lips that create turbulence.
this is an early style motor, technically a 306 (is that the right last digit?) since there is no cast bridge in the chain tunnel. i'll be using VM 34's, which i have quite a bit of practice tuning on other bikes- always get them cheap on ebay and refurbish... otherwise staying with the stock cam which i read is supposed to be pretty good relative to later units, plus the cylinders were honed with fresh rings. will deglaze the steel clutch rings and also go with PMA/capacitor. a nice optimized low budget setup...
