New big Tb

Thought I would share since I caught it on Instagram. For the 55k w/ their blower I take it.

I'm running a 90mm as are at least two others. It's a BBK for the Chrysler Hemi engines.

Nice looking TB in the picture but that unit looks to be oval and would mate up to an oval inlet VS our inlets are round. So yes, it looks to be made for thier blower.

We made the flange adaptor for Denrol`s BBK 90mm TB and he seems to love the operation. Dennis did a first class job on getting it wired up and screaming.

Thanks for the interest guys,
Yes our Zeppelin is oval in design, the equivalent cross sectional area to a round throttle body is 106mm. The factory Kompressor cannot support a throttle body this large due to space constraints. We left room on the table with the design of our Supercharger system so we could develop a monster throttle body like our Zeppelin.

The Zeppelin added to our supercharger system is the key to all new power levels for the M113k platform.

There's a 148mm KB throttle body that could be used for the Weistec kits with some fab work. Tuning would be fun I'm sure.
