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! |

Thislinkage is stainless steel from Germany. Itsmade for TIV engines with 911 shrouds, but works very well in a teener as well, I had one on my 914 until I added the DTM and then I had to fab up a new one..
I sell the TWM T/Bs for about 280.00 each wirth fuel rails, and TPS in the 40-45mm size, the 48 and up to 52s are 296.00 I have had the best luck with smaller engines with 22# injectors, the 2316 pictured runs a 30# injector. Here is my newestbellcrank style DTM linkage. I'm drawing this one up off the prototype as we speak. Its made especially for the guys running a DTM with the TWM T/Bs. Its a progressive rate arrangement that has a very smooth transition. Here it is on a 2270 FI beast.(IMG:http://www.aircooledtechnology.com/customers/dworrell/Linkage%20092.jpg) And here it is as a close up. It actuates from a pair of roller bearings mounted to a fixed plate welded to my DTM generator stand. (IMG:http://www.aircooledtechnology.com/galleries/linkage/Linkage%20071.jpg) I sell the linkage posted in the original post (for the stock fan/911 fan) for 89.95 |
