Good luck with the build. Post pictures! In fact start a build page in Project Builds section.

Thanks guys. I reckon I'll port n polish it, mild cam, electronic ignition, 32/36 weber and extractors into a 2 inch system.

Thats probably about it. Cheers for all your helpful comments.

If your budget will swing just buy a cylinder head already done up. If not clean up the ports on your existing I'd go with something mild like the GX cam or close to it. On the flywheel you have a couple of options but for street I would not run anything lighter than 14lbs.
Mild porting, Cam, 32/36 and extractors should get you about 15 hp give or take a few. One thing to remember is that the more you mod an A-series the higher up the rev range the power band goes and the standard gearbox starts to become an issue due to the huge RPM drop between gears. It's best to give up a little so that the drivability doesn't suffer

No budget in mind yet. The performance upgrades I have in mind are:
Port n polish, including match porting the inlet manifold.
Mild cam grind suitable for street/daily driving.
Slightly oversize bore.

What benefits would a lightened flywheel have over the stock A14 flywheel, apart from getting up in the revs quicker?

As I say, I want a relible and strong motor which will last me for years.
Cheers for all you comments guys.

Yeah that would be nice unfamilia

What kind of budget would you be looking at?

hot cam, lightened&balanced flywheel.

Is that $500 dave69 cause thats what it owes you with the motor etc you bought it with.?????

I have a spare A12 fly wheel
