get the head reconditioned, ported and polished. Also i remember cooterdoug saying to get the head machined 1/16th past the mark on the head to raise compression a bit. youll need to run it on 98 fuel though.
also dry sump ftw and have a perspex oil tank where the passenger seat used to be.

note: i have never done any of this.
