Just looking at the inlet port while I have the head off and must admit does look strange, or is it me?
The UCAL CV carb has a 29mm bore (well 28.8), the manifold comes up at 30mm but the port in the head is 35mm high and 32.6mm wide and as you can see is not round, does that look right?
I guess it is not restricting anything and must be part of the lean burn design but just looks like it is asking for opening to suit a round 35/36mm manifold/carb!
It has not been ported as you can clearly see the casting marks along the inlet track.
