Buy or make an adapter intake and use a Mikuni VM 22 or similar sized carb. Alot of power in a tuned carb!

Yes, you will most likely have to play with jets to get all the circuits just right. Also, They sell them cheaper than that. I got mine for $30. It was used and was missing the needle hold down, but I fabbed one out of a washer, a plastic washer and some jb weld. I also got 10 jets with it! Just keep looking.

Well...mine is jetted incorrectly. I broke my throttle cable, so I can't test it now. Was changing some settings on it.
