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.... |

more plenum ramblings.....
okay....let's say we take a stock 2.0 plenum, cut it in half and widen it to do 2 things...1st would be to increase the volume for a larger motor and the 2nd thing it would accomplish is allowing one to cut down the overall length of the intake runners. Instead of the stock t/b, pretty much any t/b could be mounted on top or how about 2 throttle bodies of smaller size??? hmmmm??? |
