Ask him what the diameter is across the inlet side.. if its 40mm+ go for it!

Gixxer 600 ones should be fine unless you're looking for mega horsepower (200+)

Search for an intake from a Focus ST170, its allmost bolt on. Im building this application on my silvertop.
Its from a GSX1000R, so it might be a little bit bigger.

svante,

thats useful to know, are you using the fuel rail and injectors from the gixxer, or the ford?

I have a set of GSXR 1000 bodies already converted and fitted to a ST170 manifold, Fuel rail, TPS and injectors on ebay if any interest.

billbro, they seem very neat, and if i didn't have so little cash what with sprog on the way amongst other things i'd bite your arm off.

The conversion is ongoing, and i was recommended to use the Ford injectors due to better performance (?). Since im using the ford injectors its better to use the fitting fuelrail as well. Its necessary to space out the throttle bodies because they sit a little bit closer to eachother on the bike.
All will be controlled by Megasquirt, all this will be installed in the car during the winter, now it sits on the bench waiting for worse weather.
