Sounds like a good interesting story. I wouldnt port VN heads though if you are leaving it as a 304, they are big enough standard. Maybe a small clean up would be OK.

Keep an eye on Ebay, they pop up often enough, hopefully youll score some suitable ones.
Try and remember that bargains are enticing, but everything you buy should be matched to work in harmony and achieve a common goal. |
