Bryan,
Why are you running 42mm, is there a narrowing of the throat that is say 38 or 40 mm?

Hello all,
I have a chance to purchase a TWM throttle body(see attch pic) at a very low price.  I have a couple questions for the group.
 
The inlets are 42mm (appx 1.65 in.).  Is this too big to the point that they would be incompatible with the injectors?  I plan on using 1-1/8 and1-1/4 in runners.
 
Also, the bosses are sized for Bosch, Rochestor, or Lucas injectors.  Does this necessarily eliminate my using the stock Renesis injectors?
 
This setup also would allow the use of a lightweight airbox  thus simplifying the intake system from a manufacturing standpoint.
 
Thanks in advance,
Bryan
RV7, Renesis,RD-1C,EC3,EM3 (in the pipeline I hear)
