Default New to Lt80

Hi all, Im 100% new to here but i am a decent mechanic and keep getting little bits of info here and there but nobody seems to be in the same boat as me . Heres where Im at.

My Lt was impossible to start without jumper cables and choke on (warm or not) and took 5 min of cranking to fire up. Ran compression test and got 32 psi lol so I pulled piston and rings are SHOT.. Have new rings on way, its been bored over .5 mm so you know..with wiseco piston. Essentially what Im interested in doing is getting this thing alot faster. Ive been reading about clutch mods, and it seems like I need to take out two rollers, and somehow adjust some weights to 180 grams, need details on this please..Also I am thinking about buying the boyesen power reeds and a #90 jet from midwest, is it worth it? and Do I need the jet? Ive also read about porting the engine But im not sure exactly what that is. Should I bypass oil injection? Open to all Ideas, not trying to spend alot of money for little improvement since Im not racing, Also Kudos to LT80 Ive read alot of posts by him already he seems to really know his stuff

I posted this in suzuki forum but realized after this may be a better place

Also what is the advantages of having the head shaved? more compression? Do I have to get it ported if I shave head? what would porting cost? sorry for asking all of these questions..I am just trying to learn as much as I can
