I'm looking for a picture of the intake system on the motor. I've been told that they modified a set of twm's and I wanted to see it. I hear they cut them down shorter and changed the angle as well.

I guess I should have specified that it was when they were still running B series.

Anyone running TWM's in a competitive pro car modifies the hell out of them from what I understand. Universal throttle bodies (length/diameter) tend not too work well with non universal applications.

Omniman would be the guy to talk to for what your looking for, I believe he was the one who did the modifying ont he old TWM B units Skunk ran.

 

also would like to see

 

Hoover.

 

differant angle maybe this could help

 

IT NEEDS TO BE A B!!!

 

now i see. whoops

I give up...

 

I think what your thinking about is the K series that they cut, what it was before TWM came out with the K series kit they took a H22 ITB and cut the flange off and made a K flange that they welded on. So because of the angle that it came out to they made a air box to fit it, so that's why the different angle and length.

 

why ask about the skunk car when lookofskys is actually racing.... and breaking records

The TWM units they used on the B series set up years back were HEAVILY modified. Cut up, welded, ported, etc. It wouldnt suprise me if they did the same on the K if and when they used TWM TB's. TWM TB's are a one size fits all type deal, that just doesnt apply for full race applications. I do think they were using Kinsler TB's on the K though from what I rememeber.

 

skunk was actually using something other then TWM on the K motors. TWM were the first set of ITBs that they were using. They switched out to a custom set of ITBs that were made and were about 60mm - 64mm.

some of the scoops that people are running now have a two staged injection or top feed with a total of 8 injectors.

 

In the second picture I can see where it was cut at the flange but the angles are hard to see. Hardt, you bring up a good point. I should probably ask Omniman, if he was the person that modified them. I guess it makes it a little harder to find a picture of a b motor since those are all vintage and probably black and white pictures anyway.
