    comes stock with individual tuners similar to the 60 twin, makes 73 hp , with twin 38mm carbs and several other similarities to the 45.
    Difference is in the late nineties RD Performance figured out a exhaust the worked from 3,500 rpms up. I was fortunate enough to talk to the engine guru there several times. He said they filled up a 40ft trailer with test pipes. They end result was a pipe that bumped a stock 73 hp Yamaha up to 100hp. In 1999 and 2,000 RD dominated every heat of the Worlds with that pipe. On a ported Yamaha they sell the pipe in a kit and gaurentee 140 hp from 7,400 to 7,800 along with arm wrenching acceleration. They said they could make more power but the drivers want acceleration. I have one of the pipes never used it or RD race porting specs. Just running rec specs. Stock Super Jet Exhaust opens at 89 deg ATDC Transfers open at 120/118 deg ATDC .

    I can help you out a bit
    2 cylinders. 46.4 displacement. The bore width is 3.23" and the stroke length is 2.83".
    They will turn 8000
    Solid steel crank
    used complete motor $500.00
    You can still get new parts thru Yamaha....same basic motor as their commercial 55 hp.
    Wisco has pistons
    Boyensen has reeds
    Bone stock with no mods they turn 7000.

    I have a powerhead, it is up north in snow country, I can't get to it to take pictures to show.
    I suggest you post the pictures of your motor and see what suggestions are made. I think the key is getting small chamber heads made [to get about 170 psi], port the motor like a mod 90 yamaha including finger ports. Add plastic reeds. Leave the exhaust as is until you get to try it. The exhaust mod would be the final tune.
