Just buy some gasket material and raise the cylinder with base gaskets until it runs like you want it. then measure everything out to where it needs to go to have the port in the same spot, cut it out and fly. I’ve never worked on a motobecane engine, but thats what I do with my puchs and I gained about 5mph. I could’ve gone more, but I wanted to be on the safe side. Widening the intake and exhaust are harder to screw up than port timing.
Good luck,
Eric
