Kehein verses Mikunis?

I got a '81 LTD750 with the big square top Kehein's on it. What carbs are these?
I have a line on a fresh set of VM26's, holders & pods for 200 bucks. Would these feed a hopped up GPz750 motor?
Which set of carbs would be better for a hot rodded motor? I like Mikuni's for the simplicity & original look but I'm poor & I already have the Keheins.... What would you do? Thanks for any help?

Being poor, I think I'll just have to stick with the LTD carbs & rebuild them.

The reason I'm reluctant to use them is my first motorcycle was a '79 LTD400 with Kehein's that look very similar to these. Those diaphragm things (like the secondary umbrella in a holley vacuum four barrel)both had tears in them & I ended up spending more on the carbs than the initial purchase price of the bike! That's why I prefer the Mikuni's like what my 650 has on it now but they're only 24's.

the 26 mikuni's are a really good carb for that size of motor that sounds like a really good for the whole works it will wake that bike right up. and they are really easy to work on and with.
what about carb boots?

I kinda know the guy from online & have sold him a motor, I think he's a strait up guy. Plus he's throwing in a set of clubmans! With my rearsets, I've got to get some lower bars!
Thanks for the input guys, I know a bit more about carbs now.
