    The plastic piece that goes in the slide before the circlip only goes one way. The two nipples are not evenly spaced so pay attention.
    If you got those circlips out of the slides you can get them back in. Throw the cirlip in around the plastic needle piece like a horse shoe. Tap the slide so both holes of the circlip are off to the side with solid metal under each one. Stick in the needle nosed pliers and squeeze an push the cirlip in. If the other side doesn't go in the hole way just push it in with the end of the pliers. It'll click into place.
    Your jetting looks good with the needle on the fourth down and the largest Dyno main jet.

      Thanks for all the help everyone. Installed the carb's today without a hitch. The bike runs great too. I haven't had a chance to take it out to the highway and test it all the way through the gears yet. I did take it around town today a little and it feels like a new bike. Runs through the lower gears with no hesitation or bogging at all. I cut the pods to fit around the frame then just put some 8802 to cover up the holes in the. I had to reinstall the muffler though because I was getting all kinds of noise complaints from the neighbors.

      Here is a pic of the finished project.
