She hasn't been run in a number of years and I want her to be as reliable as possible. I've Googled but can't find a list of the parts I'll need, can anyone help me out? What carbs would be the best choice? Thanks!!!!!

You just need the carbs and a set of boots and a set of pods.. There should be a few threads here where riders have done this. Roy

Just plug the injectors use mikuni 28mm pumpers or what you can afford 26 will work .

I've been told I'll have to replace the head, any truth to it?

No. just knock out some plates to fill the hole the injectors used to sit in.
Don't be ridiculous! It's only a flesh wound!
