My buddy at JMC Racing has some old DG stock and found some reed kits for the 86/87 Tecate,i haven seen it yet but i guess its an upgrade on the stock reeds.

i put a boysen kx250 cage and reeds on mine. dont let the fact that it is a tecate make you use 20 year old parts. there are lots of things that you can do to make it rip!!!

I really need a carby intake(mine is perished),is there a KX250 model that is the same ?

83,84,85, 86 are all straight ones, many others will bolt up but you have to ditch the airbox. Not a big deal unless you ride in a swamp. Also maybe check the 125's, 500's, and kdx's you might be surprised, maybe try cross-referencing reed gaskets

The 500 will not work, its angled. Only real choice that I know at the moment is the Tecate piece.

boyseen reeds,.. 87 quadzilla and 86-87 tecate 3 and 4 are the same part number, what is in my zilla is carbon fiber reeds for the the tecate

I talked to Corey Sprock about the intake problem. I pitched an alum design w/ a rubber boot to the carb. Or a stock rubber intake. He did not seen to think it would be to hard of a part to have made up. I have not talked to him recently but I think w/ enuff interest he might look into this for us T3 guys.

The aluminum intake idea sounds sweet. kinda like the external part of a Boyesen Rad valve, but with the proper dimensions for the airbox. I have thought about this, but I dont have the resources right now.

A guy over at the Pilot/Odyessy forums,Steve Bishop aka Livewire does straight intakes for the buggies so i assume its a doable thing for the Tecate with the right equipment.

I bought a new Tecate boot two years ago at the dealer, didn't have a problem.
