could you make the holes right? and sync from there, or you could use one of those vacuum gauges.

varios aƱos duro mi penuria intentando con varias pilas y fitros , hasta sin nada , hasta que regrese a la caja original .
 necesitas tranquilizar el aire antes de que entre en las pilas , para eso esta el separador original , la caja filtra el separador tranquiliza , algunos han obtenido resultados con un gran filtro a la salida del separador en lugar de la caja

I spent several years trying with various cones and filters, even with nothing, until I returned to the original box.
 you need to still the air before it enters the cones , that's what the original separator is for , the box filters the separator stills , some have had results with a large filter at the outlet of the separator instead of the box .

which carburettors do you have ?

are the carburettors statically synchronised?

 do not screw in the throttle any further if the engine has not been softened.

en las fotos no se ve tan mal , se ve pintura vieja , si vas a pintar  y no tienes compresor de aire podrias utilizar un decapante , un removedor de pintura y luego si un buen labado , ademas de lana de acero y cepillos , aqui podran indicarte que pintura anticalorica utilizar , creo que la marca es silominz o algo asi


in the photos it doesn't look too bad, it looks like old paint, if you are going to paint and you don't have an air compressor you could use a paint stripper, a paint remover and then a good scrubbing, plus steel wool and brushes, here they can tell you which anti-corrosion paint to use, I think the brand is silominz or something like that.
the oil passages can be cleaned with thinner or some other solvent.

en vez de perlas de vidrio utiliza  bicarbonato de sodio luego solo agua y jabon , no hace falta secar el bloque en un horno , al fin y al cabo es solo un poco de aluminio , tambien suele usarse creolina para limpiar carburadores y bloques de aluminio


instead of glass beads use baking soda then just soap and water, there is no need to dry the block in an oven, after all it is just a bit of aluminium, creolin is also often used to clean carburettors and aluminium blocks.

nunca calientes un motor recien reconstruido sin rodar o sin un muy buen sistema de enfriamento , los metales aun no estan hermanados , y todo lo que no este en contacto aun se calienta por demas , como los aros del piston por ejemplo hasta se asientan en su totalidad

never warm up a newly rebuilt engine without running it in or without a very good cooling system, the metals are not yet bonded, and everything that is not in contact with each other is still overheating, such as piston rings for example until they are fully seated.

good job !
