Welcome to the site Tom! Sounds like you've got a pretty good start on getting your KDX in top shape. You'll find lots of good info about the RB carb mod here and everything else you might want to know about your KDX. Start reading and asking questions. You'll be suprised at what the KDX can do when you get it worked over.

You're familiar with the 220 piston horror stories? Well, not stories, but related facts of the matter?
Welcome to the site!!
Note the 220 head is consistently inconsistent. If you're sending your carbie in, might as well throw the head in, too!
Have fun!!

Wiseco is the only choice for a 220 owner. Pro-X just sells OEM pistons which grenade like the stockers.
