So good news
Yesterday evening I had a friend of mine come round, who is a mechanic and we worked on the engine for an hour or so.

She now purrs well and pulls off...
Still hates it between revs 1500-2000, but once over that, WOW its like a racing engine, revs, pulls and sounds awesome.
The power increase is pretty dramatic, rear wheel spin is now something to be aware of to.

I've ordered a H120 electronic dizzy and new coil to boot, which should sort the remaining problem, as I've learnt it gives the different advance curve that the webers like.

Also the Holbay rocker cover is on
