Need some helping looking for the correct intake for my '85 200x.

I'm building an auto-X and I put on what I thought was 200X carb (from the parts machine I bought) but clearly is bigger intake port than it should be. In my research online, found you can use an '80-'84 Honda XR200 (not R) intake to accept a XR200 carb with no modifications to airbox. It clearly is smaller and sucks air, won't hardly run. So I need to buy correct intake. Looking for answer if a XR200R intake fits or has to be XR200 only? Any help is appreciated


Thanks,
Brian

I believe you need an 81-83 XR200/XR200R intake manifold. 84-85 XR200R was a twin carb design
