Re: MTI 434ci C5R - Colonel's Engine

Colonel where's the twin turbos? J/K You guys are doing a sweet job with that engine! <blockquote>quote:<hr />That injector sure is mounted up there. Why didnt they bring it down closer to the intake port, or is this a non issue since the motor is meant to run just at WOT? <hr /></blockquote>Maybe they would just obstruct air flow if they were down any further?... The runners are almost vertical

Re: MTI 434ci C5R - Colonel's Engine

Any real reason for staying with a single TB instead of going with TB per cylinder like the Katech C5-R?

Terry, he said cowl not hood. <img border="0" title="" alt="[Wink]" src="gr_images/icons/wink.gif" />

Besides, individual TBs are a PITA to actuate and adjust. <img border="0" alt="[Banging Head]" title="" src="graemlins/gr_banghead.gif" />

The velocity stack individual throttle bodies found on a few Katech C5Rs will not fit under the cowl of an F-body. Its pretty tight under there, see photos.
