cheap MS project /go kart

[comrade904]

I've already read the stickies but I have not gotten a MS yet. I'm looking at rebuilding a vintage 20-year old kart for my nefew who still a little young for it now. I figure it would be a neet testbed for MS to see IF/HOW LONG it takes me firgure and install for my car(waiting for routerboard).

Any ways I know this would be an awesome present in a year or two and have come to the following using the stickies and other internet links.

My inital research shows that I need a TB of just less than one inch, roughly .6" if using the corrected value for 20% intake itb both.

Before using the stickies the calculate the size I was looking at a 3800 GM TB simply for ease of install due to its all inclusive design and availablility. It is a throttle body MAF and IAC all in one neat package for $20. Now I doubt it'll work at all

The other idea I had was a 1000cc geo/Diahatsu TB.

And other than that I'm dry for finding a cheap easy single TB MAF and IAC for this odd project.

I'f really like all three componets to make sure I can install and configure them when the time comes for my car.

or gut a carb from a small engine and turn it into a throttle body - you only need the throttle plate.
