How do these work on our cars? Will it bolt up to a D-Jet 914 manifold?

If so, is the opening in the plenum large enough to take advantage of it?

I’ve run the Westy throttle body on my 2056 L-Jet for about 5 years.
It was a bolt on; IIRC the TPS had to be modified, can’t remember the issue but it orientation may have been different.

I think they only fit L jet systems. The website is void of needed useful fitment information.

Hmm. Well, I've often considered switching my Microsquirt conversion to an L-Jet induction...it would be an easy conversion...will it fit on 2L heads?

@GregAmy

A while back I had read a lot of useful information on Shoptalkforums on this.

If I recall, the 2 liter heads need the 2 liter runners. Then you use the L-Jet plennun with longer flexible interconnecting tubes. Now for the L-Jet plennun, these is also a debate about its volume and this is where bus plenum can potentially be used if I recall. Again I was actively reading about this a few years back.

This guy having build a type 3 wagon (Squarch) had a 2.3 type four engine mated to a 901 and the car was equipped wit a 911 rear suspension if I recall. He had tried a bunch of things with L-Jet, 2 liter based engine (heads), megasquirt, others...

Cool stuff! (IMG:style_emoticons/default/smash.gif) (IMG:style_emoticons/default/driving.gif)
