Oops, ignore the bit about the valve clearance, it is getting late.
A quick measure of the valve lift on the readily available camshaft gives a lift of around 6-7mm with a head clearance of 11mm even with a skimmed head.

4 branch manifold and twin carb on a minor apparently gives 75 mph which would give a closer match to your Norton :D
if it's got wheels or chips - it'll cost you dear
