The fork length on my original 1971 DT1 MX is 32 inches from the bottom of the pinch bolt to the top of the fork cap.  One thing that is definitely wrong on your is the rubber fork wiper, you have the "ribbed" fork wipers for an enduro model.  They were designed for the chrome wiper cap.  The original DT1 and RT1 MX wipers were smooth rubber.
