Ian,
The 600 used the same B&B carburetor body, the 123-5, as the 350 models except for the choke size. My 1928 is bored about 3/4", so yours sounds about right. Per the handbook the standard jet was 90, once run in you could lean it out for maximum fuel economy with an 85. I am sure you will be fitting a 95, recommended by the book for maximum speed!
The mechanical and hand oiling systems are plumbed independent. The hand pump it piped directly into the top of the sight glass on the timing cover, and was not fitted with a tap. I would have to pull the pump plunger out Wed. when I get back home, but for some reason I believe that it is designed so that the entire contents of the oil compartment can not drain down through the sight glass, but only the charge of oil in the hand pump itself. In fact it would have to be that way as it bypasses the mechanical pump and goes directly to the sight glass.
There is a tap fitted to the line feeding the mechanical oil pump, since this draws off the bottom of the oil compartment. It then too passes to the sight glass via internal passageways. The oil exits out the back of the sight glass, and via a tube to the base of the front cylinder, and through a non-return valve. All the oil for the engine passes through via the front cylinder; there is no feed via drillings in the crankshaft as on the 350EW.
For touring work ignition timing is 45 degrees BTDC, full advance. For speed work 50 to 55 degrees was recommended.
Valve timing:
Inlet open 15 degrees BTDC
Inlet valve close 55 degrees ABDC
Exhaust valve open 51 degrees BBDC
Exhaust valve close 15 degrees ATDC
If you flywheel has not been skimmed, 7/8" around the rim represents 10 degrees aproximatly.
Valve lash is checked when hot.
Inlet 0.005 inch
Exhaust 0.006 inch.
