just keep checkin the plug colour and get a feel for how the motor is working.
main jets are pretty cheap and DT360s don't rev too high, so if you're real concerned about it running lean or the like. just short shift it for the first ride and do the main jet if it don't "feel" right.

There's a good chance that a decent exhaust will require a smaller main jet.

In my experience with the DT250, the standard airbox is a power killer, particularly when combined with the standard carby. I fitted a 34mm carby along with a sock filter, and it made a huge improvement on my otherwise standard motor.


The good thing about telling the truth is that you don't have to remember what you said.

Try a 34mm on a 310-330 main,  the clip will fix it it it bogs down, my mx360s run on 310-340 mains each bike likes it differant.

My 250's run on a 270  and 300 mains from memory so you should be good to go in the 300's  also it would be under the 340.

so maybe start on 320 on the 38mm and see what happens whats the cut away ?  you might be able to put a 1.5 in it or somthing to cut it down a bit of the bottom.
