Here I am stuck in UCLA- ugly corner of lower alabamma- (no disrepect intended to those who live here- its just not home for me) working on Katrina storm claims.
3 weeks of 14 hr days. Insurance adjuster. The storm bonus should cover cost of some used carb manifolds, throttle bodies, injectors, cross bar linkage, and some fuel rail bits and pieces. What to buy? Where to buy? What size to buy? Jenvy, TWM, Redline/weber, C.B., others? They'd be going a basically stock 2.0 with a Kerry Hunter header, euro p/c's, stock cam/valves/springs, and stand alone ECU system. The car runs SCCA DSP, so no changes to the long block allowed. I'd like to size the throttle bodies and injectors to be big enough to move on to a Jakester 2316 in a year or 2, when I save up some more $$ for his kit. Planning on the linkage from triad west, as it seems most complete, has had good reviews, and uses lots of heim joints. I like that idea. Any thoughts? Any real world experience? Thanks! |

Jake, I'd be interested in the $$$ as well, and if you could break it down into TB's, injectors, manifolds, velocity stacks, air cleaner assy's, and linkage. Speaking of the linkage, comment on that one in the photo, please. TMW part? There have been several notes to different threads, (found them thanks to Mr search) about center mount linkages being not as good as the more traditional dual carb/hex rail type of thing we've all seen for years, not a progressive rate on the cable pull, problems with expansion of the motor vs linkage. That one looks pretty cool. Whats your take on linkages? And how about injector size for the 2316 vs my stock 2.0? Can one size do double duty, now and later?
I know everyone is always trying to milk you for more info- If you want to PM me a reply with prices thats fine. What am I using for EFI? Its a secret. I'll spill it once its on the car and working. |
