You have a good list there my friend....
If you look at my build or at sids build, You can get alot of info in there but of course i will be glad to try and help out...
I think that's the same kit sid had gotten at 1st, You need to check your port durations with that kit and hopefully save any head aches later....

You probably have a 35pj. Mine came with a that anyway.. If you remove the bowl and inspect the jets, the oko has the number stamped..
If i am not mistaken, Needing the choke means that your pj is to small

You're right batman, too small a PJ will make it hard to start (I need to change mine). I would have thought 28mm to be too big? See how you go with it, but if you get a good exhaust you might be ok.
