hi
i have an E16 head

it has a 23mm inlet valve and a 20mm exhaust- i thought itwas only the E22 heads that ran this set up?

any ideas?

Re: head question
E22 (Honda ST70) has 25mm inlet / 22mm outlet
Wave and Nice engines have 24 / 20mm
SS50 head has 19 / 16mm

These are the diameters of the valves.
Kitaco STD has 24 / 20mm valves.

Could you measure up the in and out ports? As well as the combustion chamber.

the chamber is about 40mm across and about 13mm deep

Re: head question
I'd say it's a Dutch SS50 5-speed head. (matches the inscription as well)
19mm inlet valve - 16mm outlet valve
19mm intake port - 22mm outtake port
39mm round combustion chamber
29mm / 29mm cam "bearing" diameter
