    throttle bodies?

    has anyone had these fitted to a williams? i think cleans is a 1.8 still isnt it?

    just wandering but seen as the williams is a low revving compared to the valver, would running 260degree cams(or there abouts) work with throttle bodies etc? would there be need for other work ie head reworked, bottom end aswel to help this get best use posible out of them??


    cheers for any info

    clean is still on stnd btm end, 280 cams I think revs limited at 7300 rpm...would make more power with btm end work to raise the revs

    I think (although may be wrong) that Mehdi's is on the same cams as mine and Jesus'. 260's IIRC.

    I keep planning to do a TB conversion, but using bike TB's which are available for peanuts in comparison.

    T/B's arn't cheap since you need a new radiator.

    What sort of RPM do the 260 degree cams kick in at? I'm after something to help drop the 5k kick the 270 in mine down a bit. EVen 4.5k would be a nice drop.
