Hi Raul, I'll try to help. :)
CT pipe eh.......
Why are you going to 51mm and WHY a Weisco piston??
(50.5 is first bore and get a Zuki piston)

Rear clutch shoes: You take the weight off the end. I cut the end off. You'll cut off about 3/8 inch from the contact pad.
You are not going to produce enough power (compared to a race motor) thus you will not need springs and springs alone won't work w/o major modification.
You may need a different torque spring, but we'll see.
