well, you've got something strange there. the std 1200/1300/1400 (the sport is basically a std 1300 with twin carbs) has 33mm inlet & 29 exhaust.

the mpi 1400 & 1600 engines have 38mm inlet & 31mm exhaust, and the big block 8v engines have 42mm inlets & 36.5mm exhaust.

are there any part no's or marks on the valves that would help identify them?


ps. welcome to png.

The head and valves you have are not standard. Sport is just an SR head and does not have increased valve sizes.
Are you in some kind of race series like autograss which states they must be standard?
