Best throttle bodies for a pinto

I've decided to jump on the bike TB band-waggon that seems to be happening at the moment and am wondering which ones are most suitable for a 2lt Pinto running an FR32 cam?

I plan on either mating them to the DCOE manifold I've currently got, or getting hold of a pinto injection manifold from a Sierra and mounting them on that but using the existing injector locations.

Anyone got a Pinto running such a setup? I'm planning on using Megasquirt to control everything

cheers

ppc last month ran a feature on TB selection.

GSXR 600 TB's were recommended for up to 200 BHP.

Recommend you get a back issue and read the whole article.

Cheers

Mark

I'm currently watching a set of GSXR600K1 TBs on eBay but am wondering what bits I need to ensure get with them to allow me to mount them to my engine? Presumably I need some trumpets (like my Webers currently have) and some sort of bracketry to mount them to my car?

Any pics of setups would be very useful

cheers
