Title: EFI and throttle body choice
Post by: mike on May 20, 2008, 10:58:34 PM

Hey Guys,

I have a few questions regarding the type of throttle bodies I should be getting for my EFI project that I

If I had to do it again I would get TWM bodies instad if Jenveys as the Injector can be placed inboard or outboard on those T-bodies, also you won't need use any funky carb turn arounders or adapters as the TWM's will bold directly to any standard IDF manifold and the fuel rails wild be adjacent to the shroud. ( where you want them )
Linkage will also be less of a hassle.

IfI were you I would consider the current MS brain over the seqential, as you won't have to deal with things like a cam position sensor, and the gains of Batch fire Vs. Seqential are so minimal that I doubt you would ever see any difference.

Darren,

Thanks for the reply.  I'll do some more research on the TWMs. I didn't know that they had injector ports on both side of the throttle body. that would defiantly be a easier solution and maybe more inexpensive. The Jenvey's I got quoted on was around $1200.

Reason why I mentioned Jenvey's is because I've heard nothing but good things about them.

Does the CB filter base fit the TWMs?

As for the sequential EFI, I might of been too advantageous, I'll probably be going batch fire with the current MS brain for the meantime... until I figure out how to convert my unilite into a cam sensor. :)

Thanks!
Off to London I go!
