Yuppers it's Renix. Decided to stay with that to minimise the difficulty of the swap.

You should atleast get the throttle body bored out or your going to suffocate that new engine

It'l never go over 4K.
I did the calculations from "Performance Fuel Injection Systems".
If I get a little time I'll post the calcs. But if I remember correctly, according to the calcs the TB should be fine.
I realize that the real word is sometimes quite different than calculations, but as I said before, I kind of want to change a little at a time.
This makes t-shooting easier. I'll be happy just to get it in and running!
I have half a dozen TB's from different Jeeps floating around the shop, so I can experiment after initial startup.

I'm sticking with my renix tb as well but I'm going to have it bored out to 60mm so I don't have to buy all the expensive adapters to make the newer tbs work with the older computer but I'm going with the newer intake for the better flow and I figure the intakes only dealing with air and vacuum so it can't really mess anything up

Newer intake + RENIX TB still ='s Adapters...
If it feels right, then STROKE it!
