If you service the decomp it will be fine.Pull the head and get rid of the carbon.Remove decomp and lap with valve grinding compound and put it back together.Personally I wouldn't plug it. You'll just add extremely hard to start to your list of issues.Slow down and take your time.

I'm going to be able to rais the pipe quite a bit. The grillo sub is like an si and there pretty tough. I'll weld some racing behind the reed block. It should handle it.

You know you may be onto something though.I've got a 71 vespa boxer and it doesn't have a brake light circuit. Someone may add a battery to have a brake light maybe
