Would anyone share their experience with improving these motors' reliability and performance?

For instance:

Is there any way to increase main bearing life by improving lubrication or counterbalancing?

How about releiving/polishing the combustion chamber/valve area ir matching ports?

Could you ever get one of these things breathing well enough that you'd want to hunt down a two-carb intake?

Is there any benefit with increasing the compression ratio when milling the head?

Anybody ever stroked their crank?
