KZ 400 H1 Single Carb. Conversion

I have a 1979 Kawasaki kz400 ltd that has the stock carbs on it. I am looking to do a single carb. conversion using the Mikuni vm34-168. I was wondering if that is an appropriate carb to do a single carb conversion and how far off the jetting would be.

Just curious - why would you want to perform a mod that will reduce the horsepower of a bike that doesn't have much (stock = 36 hp) to spare? Ed
