Thanks to Charlie Mullendore of Antietam Classic Cycle for providing the following information on the old Yahoo! Loopframe_Guzzi news group (which has now moved to Groups.io). In Charlie's own words:

VHB 30s with stock Eldo jetting should work fine. The extra 1 mm larger throat diameter makes very little difference in my experience. However, the 30s won't just slip onto the 29 manifolds - the plastic sleeve of the 29s and 30s are different. The plastic sleeve of the 29s is 35 mm ID × 40 mm OD and for the 30s is 37 mm ID × 40 mm OD You'll either need to use the manifolds that came with the 30s or swap the plastic sleeve from the 29s into the 30s.
