Any idea what these throttle bodies come off of? I know suzuki, but not model or anything. Trying to stay away from the usual l28et or 350 swap in my z, and Id like to stick with efi(most likely megasquirt) but the stock intake manifold is crud. Ive seen itbs that come off of bikes that are 4 together, but was wondering if anyone knew of any individual ones so that I could get 6 of them. Just pushing around some ideas and was wondering if any of you had any thoughts.

 

Don't know if you're familiar with this site:

Try there.

 

very familiar, just that I found this picture here, and you guys probally know a bit more about diy itb's.

 

that would be mine

I used GSXR 600 TB's. They are 38mm in diameter so they arent overkill for the BMW M20 motor that they are on.

They are actually 1 and a half sets of GSXR 600 TB's. I just used the center 2 from the second set.

How much HP do the L28's typically make n/a?

I like Suzuki TB's since they can be spaced out to whatever spacing you want to retain straight shots into the intake port. What do you plan on using for engine management?

(edit) just saw you said you were looking into a megasquirt. Im soldering mine together this weekend and hope to be racing at Etown April 30 so Ill let ya know how the MS works out)

This is what im dealing with, so I'm not sure how im going to space them out, because Im thinking id have to angle the runners. Hp on these things differ allot, mainly depends on whether you have a stroker and how much head work you do. On the setup im planning, people get 200-220whp on triple carbs and around 175-190 on stock efi. So the stock efi manifold and fuel is really killing the engines breathing.

 

well gsxr 1000 carbs can be spaced as far apart as you want you just have to weld a connecting rod to each throttle rotor. its nothing that you couldnt figure out after its all mounted up to a set of runners. focus on getting them and a manifold the rest will become obvious

 

Try TWM induction

 

those are some HOT pics

 

i am working on the exact same idea, been thinking about using GSXR bodies as i can space them as i need to.
keep me updated on this

Mabye old M5?

They were individual throttle body cars back in the day. Just a guess though.
