Default 250x hop ups

i have a 1987 250x and was wondering what type of tires do use front and back for motocross racing and trail riding? what type of hop ups should i put on for entering a motocross race? what is the best pipe? will 88-89 250r front plastic fit the font of the 250x?

The R plastic will fit with some modifications. As far as tires go I'm running 400EX tires they seem to work great. For hop up's I'd put different shocks on it and make it wider. Suspension and handling should come before performance mods.
