Put the money into the head, port and maybe a valve upgrade.
Your going at it ass backwards.
SLOW DOWN, your going 100 mph.
Ask around and see what the deal is. The guys on here are well versed on any and all engine, carb upgrades. Do the work and get it right the first time.

Stick with the 29s,thats more than enough carb for a streetbike motor.If you could find a set of the 79-80 28mm pumper carbs those would work also,it all depends on how much work they need versus what the crs cost.Cal wrote: Im not sure if my reply posted,,so ill try again,i was going to go with the cr29's but the tech at pj's told me the 29's were good for street use,,but the 31's would be better for street and highway,,i do want all around performance,off the line and like passing at 70mph on the interstate,,another person asked about my bike,as of now its a stock 78 kaw LTD1000,,but i have the dynatek dyna s ignition,coils and wires to be installed when i have carbs installed,im also going to get a kerker 4into1 header with either the 2.5 comp baffle or no baffle,,thanks for the replies
Keep a baffle of some kind in there,running without one just kills low end torque and attracts unwanted attention from the law.

for the cost of the new CR carbs, I think you could do better with some head work and a set of fattened up VM28's.
The KZ head in stock form flows about 68-CFM on intake side. The CR carbs you want can supply far more fuel than the head can process, creating little performance for the money. This is why I question just slapping on a set of carbs.
A street port is about $350. They will grind out the intake runners increasing the intake CFM flow of the head. Along with the header, pods, Dyna ignition and VM28 carbs -- you will feel a good bump in performance. I would contact Larry and discuss what you want, get advice and a budget. He has the answers you need.
With a used pipe and watching the money, you might be able to do all the above for about the price of the CR CARBS, and be far happier in the long run. I haven't priced the carbs, but would guess $800
