So i gave them a call today to place an order for the carburetor and throttle as both you and Yaegerb suggested, Also for the fact that they have the best prices i could find. Turns out the PWK's are on back order until the end of February! and they have over 50 Pre orders placed already So it looks like i wont be seeing a carb until then. I need to call back tomorrow and actually place the order, hearing that their was such a wait kind of made me want to search else where for a deal but for the amount that the carb / throttle cable / jet kit is from them is hard to beat.
Also after talking with the engine builder I will be going with a 35mm, Like quite a few of you guys had suggested he also said 34-36mm range would be what he would use for my situation so im going with that Thank you everyone for the suggestions and info on what you all are running on your trikes to help me decide on which size.

From what I have read you can use a 78-80 cr250 intake boot for a 38mm carb on a fooler. The best part is you can still get new ones for 55$! I was going to order one soon and try it out before posting it up just to make sure it works but figured I would let you know!

Well i placed the order today from http://www.carbparts.com/keihin/katv.htm sealed the deal on the 35mm air striker. included was a new throttle cable, and jet kit with jets from 40-55 for the pilot, and 168-182 for the main. and the carb is going to have a 48 pilot jet installed and a 175 main, i am going to start from there.
HondaRidr, let me no how the 78-80 cr250 boot works out and thanks for the tip, I still need to get in contact with mossbarger about purchasing a reed cage / manifold. if they can make the manifold's in whatever size intake boot is needed that is going to be the way i am going to go. I just wanted to get the carb order'd before i contacted them, that way i no what size carb i have and can intern tell they what size intake tube i would need if they can still make them.

I was browsing ebay this afternoon and came across this and ended up making an offer and the seller accepted my offer. Anyone have any idea what brand it is? i have seen this style intake one time before but still have no idea on the brand. the boost bottle port is threaded so a block can be installed if you do not want to use the boost bottle. the intake throat is 38mm and the stud spacing for the rubber Carb mount is 60mm, I was able to find a mikuni carb mount that is the correct size (thanks for the tip Paul), So i picked that up today also.

Ahh sweet! I saw that thing on ebay too..I believe it's either a DG or Helm and Son..it should have a stamp on the inside part that would attach to the cylinder..always wondered how those things worked..you get your new 35mm airstryker yet?

The intake is in transit to me, but here is a pic of the area that you are describing that the seller posted... Not seeing any stamp or anything that would give info on the brand. As for the Carburetor, its still on back order from the east coast distributor and will not get shipped out till the end of the month.

So I FINALLY!! got my 35mm PWK in today along with a selection of other Goodies!. Along with the carb came a full assortment of Genuine jets (40-55 Pilot) and (170-182 Main) The carb has a 178 main jet and a 48 pilot jet installed as a starting jet selection for initial startup. (Thanks for the initial Jet selection El Camexican, if i should tweak it for initial start guys please let it be known! i extremely appreciate any help / suggestions). The carb also fits like a glove with the Helm and son intake, thanks for the help / tip for the mikuni carb adapter Paul. A new Motion Pro throttle cable with a 70 degree bend at the carb inlet. A N.O.S clutch cable, Mossbarger Power Groove Reed cage kit with spacer, Gaskets and new hardware. And Id like to confirm that Mossbarger is still around and they ARE taking Phone order's so if any of you guys have been considering contacting them here is their phone number (856) 435-1977. I also asked them if they made the DG style intakes for the ATC250R's and they do not BUT they do make them for CR250's but I am fairly sure the angles of the intakes are different. And Last but Not least an AWESOME set of 300R decals thanks to Pantera!! they came out great i could Not be happier with them! thanks alot Jeff!!. I think it is about time for me to starting getting down to business!

[QUOTE=bigdaddyvw185;1269470]Last year i got my hands on a 84 250R for 340$ But it had a blown top end....little did i no it was not just any 250R, it had a 300R top end, i did not even realize what i had purchased as this was my first 2 stroke and first full size trike. So i posted up some pics over on .org and shocked by what i had in my hands. I was not going to do a full restoration project when i first got the trike, but once i realized what i had those plans went out the window and a full restoration was coming!!. well that was back in April and the project has since come almost full circle. some parts of the trike were in rather rough shape back when i picked it up. well here are some pics of how it sat when i grabbed it and then i will post more of the entire process up to how i have it sitting now!.
That's one hell of a job bigdadyvw185 if I had near enough guts I would restore mine lol... keep up the great work heres some pics of mine no wear near as nice as yours but it will keep you motivated none the less lol! Btw that's one badass rear end setup you got with the swingarm and all; awesome detail cheers bro!!!

So i take one step forward and two steps back... The Helm and Son intake is WAY to large of an intake to work with the 300 cylinder / mossbarger Reed cage and spacer / AND the PWK. i Need to get my hands on an intake that is at least half the length of the helm and son. The helm and son comes out about 4 or so inches from the cylinder and leaves virtually no room for the carburetor to be mounted. Does anyone have a DG or Rocky intake available?.
Had a feeling the Helm and son intake was going to be too large....
