Are all 3.5cc motors roughly the same? Are some ported differently for off road maybe?
I was looking at O.S and FX Engines but most come with 180 degree exhaust flanges which i assume are for off road?

If anyone can point me in the right direction or suggest me a good starter motor please let me know.
What separates the on and off road engines is their timings. On road engines use a more of a L shaped header whereas off road uses a U shaped header. On road GT8 also uses an off road header.
