Drew has a spectacular aura aboutDrew has a spectacular aura about
while the charger was away i started looking for other options. throttle bodies sounded like a good possibility on a mildly tuned engine. asking around found some Triumph 955 TB's with similar port spacing to the kv6 (thanks Dave 'GTMSpyder')

ordered 2 sets from ebay usa..



as i knew the charger fitted under the bonnet i could take some measurements and see what i could get away with..



although they are quite small i decided i didn't need any of the extra fittings the bike had, so machined them off..



so trying to make the TB's fit onto the std manifolds i machined a block up to suit..



fits ok on my spare engine..



the first idea of fitting to the engine..



I'm think of moving them round a bit but in essence thats where they will be.
