   They will vary - the branches of the Piper 4-1 are much bigger in diameter than say a Raceland/ Supersprint.

   a starting point would be good,the ports on the head are approx 30mm just wondering what the average size is?

   I don't have any to hand any more so cant measure for you. Generally a good manifold will have considerably larger diameter primarys than the the head port size. The step acts as a none return valve is that stops the gasses reversing flow and backing up in to the engine.
