if you want a cheap solution, kawasaki ninja 250 CV carbs are also a proven mod fit

the reason i wrote that "doubt anyone here will be able to tell you about his experience with them" is that traffic in this forum has dwindled to very little last year and i cant even recall a member here that put VMs in his xt.
that said, i build road racing vintage bikes, often used VMs and they are indeed easily tunable, so no reason not to try, but i would go with smaller bore than 33 for better down low throttle response.
the bummer in all these carb swaps in XTs is the connection to the air filter, youll see
i think youll find more info in the xt600 thread in advrider forum rather than here
