Please help me identify these and any information you’ve got. Supposedly they were made up in the early 1970’s for a Kawasaki racer. They have the special adapters for the Kawasaki head. Thank you. Marc 2195888488

Those were popular back when Kawi engines downsized to 750cc were popular with 3/4 midget racers and dwarf cars. Most ran on methanol.
Those are not street friendly, made for wide open throttle. Those small racers cut the tranny off of engine cases welded them up, and had a direct in and out gear drive.
There is a Guy in Ontario, Canada. if he is still alive named Harry Macy. He was "the man" in the day to build 3/4 midget with theair cooled Kawasaki engines
