well bad went to worse.. the head cracked when they installed the Guide. I found another head and just finished porting it and lapping the valves. the valves looked to be in great shape. got everything cleaned up, painted and new seals installed. got the cam back last week. The head came with all the shims so i hope with what i have i will be close to what i need. No more E-bay crap.. I should be riding it again this weekend.. 
Admire your perseverance.
I hope you get to ride it soon.

Well i got it all back together today. All timed and Valves set.
I have been riding it around the neighborhood.
it's running good, now back to final carb tuning.
Then i need to fix the Hard clutch. I bought a new aftermarket cable and that didn't make it any better.
I ordered a new OEM cable today. i will pull everything apart again at the basket and worm gear to double check, my double check.
I cleaned and lubed everything when i put the motor back together the first time But it's still like it was 28 years ago.
Hopefully next month i can finally finish the Paint then give it all a good cleaning and polishing..

Well i got it running again. 
I got the vin check done by the CHP and the DMV cleared it and registered it. i am the only owner of this bike.. i bought it new in 79. it was off the computer because it had not been registered since 87. It was only $85 to Get it all done and legal.. just need to finish the paint and do a little more work on the hard clutch. I have taken it apart 3 times and done every mod possible to loosen it up. Its way better but still releases too slow. I am working with another cover to try to convert it to a hydraulic system I have a clutch master and slave cylinder off a cbr 1000. i will do a little welding to make some mounts to the inner cover to make the slave cylinder work... I hope... lol..
