Reed valve position

I've replaced the air intake manifold (Imola) but the reed valve on the original manifold was sat in a recess, how critical is the position because on the new manifold it has about 5mm play eaither way, so viewed from the side 5mm left to right.

Re: Crown Wheel

ok sorry the questions I was asking is I'm changing the crown wheel for one that's machined for the lugs on the clutch should I fit a normal one that's machined or a lightened one that's machined and what difference will the lightened one make on current set up if any.

Cheers

Re: Crown Wheel

I thought if the crown wheel is machined for the lugs on the clutch it gives it more room for the clutch to release.
