Okay, me and my friend are racing when i get my motor built, and i was wondering what you think about it, and who will most likely win.

Modified Gx200: All head work done by Dave Lewis

14cc head milled .060 (.048 head gasket)(~ 13.6 compression ratio)
ported polished
.930 J-header
28.5/25mm valves
dual 55 lb springs

max stroke crank (2.133, hardened & balanced)
arc .020 rod

16/53 gearing

VS.

5hp dual ball bearing block:

heads milled ~.030
~ 27.5/24 valves
dual valve springs
~ .380 lift cam ( dont know actual cam specs all i know is it dosent have a lot of duration)

just wondering who would win in the straights, he clocked his motor in at 65mph @~9200 rpm

An over head valve engine should always shine over the flat head, so the open Honda was not built to the same level as the flathead.
 
This is why I like our rules for this engine class.lot of work went into it to be fair for all.
Their is a post about all this under limited mod clone.And again driver skill and setup
plays a big roll into this too.
