Is all that carbon build up on the piston crown since you ported it or was some of it left over from the stock cylinder? I notice a fair bit of 'tongue' on the flow pattern, which can lead to short circuiting. However, what works is just that - what works. If the old pattern didn't have the tongue and the new pattern does, that may give an indication of where to go on these cylinders for better scavenging.
It looks there may still be some additional flow available from the reeds. If you look at the end of the reed tips you can see as the reeds start flowing out to the sides the flow runs into the vertical wall of the jug casting. Putting say a 45 degree angle on the backside of the casting will turn the flow in the direction it needs to go and prevent a wall of turbulence from building in front of the reed flow.
Are you going to try anything further with the carb?
