Those are 28's. It's possible they bored them to 29's but i doubt it. Doesn't matter.

On closer inspection, after cleaning the holders, I decided that they are trash. One has dry rot cracks and one is delaminating from the metal base so I am ordering the ones you suggested on Z1 site. The picture on their site shows identical marking to mine. So I'm ordering Ape pods and new holders. If I have a vacuum leak now it's the carbs...LOL
Don't fix it until it's broken.
