for my 2316 it seems that the stock plenum might be reaching it's limits as far as volume goes.....so, I either fabricate a larger common plenum, or go with individual throttle bodies such as TWM or Jenvey*
single plenum would be easiest, but the individual throttle bodies look better (IMG:style_emoticons/default/smile.gif) has anyone switched from one to the other on the same motor with everything else being the same??? *Jake Raby is the U.S. distributor of these.... |

I'm sure he can make it run right, but the question is will the engines VE have to be sacrificed to do so???? If it needs weird VE numbers to be drivable and stay cool it will suffer in the performance arena.
That VE table will tell the tale. The plenum that Charles and I have been working on will be sized for 2250-2320CC engines specifically. |
