Found some compatible intakes for the GT5a engines (sorry dax/horse/PK80 owners). Turns out the Minarelli V1 and V1L engines use the same 40mm exhaust port all our engines use, and 40mm intakes the A series engines use (PK80/flying horse/dax GT5 (non A), whatever only use 32mm bolt spacing)
So those of us looking to order a GT5a or GT2a (or even a super rat), wanting reed valves and a gigantic (proper size!) carb, here you go:

$130 nets you a 4-petal reed valve, similar to the one Arrow Cycles sells exclusively with their race motors and special ported race jugs, but Arrow charges $220 for that... plus (for me anyway) $80 shipping. Not a good price IMHO, especially when I want to port my own jug, so then I'd just have a race jug sitting around.
So bigger intake? Check! Check Arrow race motors use 25mm if memory serves, so 1mm smaller will get you really close (but their race motor is also case inducted so you wont get as much power, but still much more than stock!)
4-petal proper size reeds? Check!
Lower price? Check!
