Smile GSXR Throttle Bodies

Decided to go for motorcycle TB's on my Blacktop Zetec 2.0 and contemplating which set to order from Ebay. Here are some questions and would like some feedback and advise please.

1. I have a choice of the following GSXR TB's. 600, 750 and 1000. I fancy the 750's but which is best for my specific motor.

2. When using the TB, is it best to remove the Zetec injectors and use the TB injectors fitted or best to blank off the TB injectors and use the Zetec fuel injectors?

3. From those that had used Ebay - is it safe to use, what are the chances that after one made payment, stuff is not send?

Thanks

I think with the TB's you choose a set aiming towards something with the sort of power output you are after.eg gsxr1000- 170 bhp etc.
Although i stand to be corrected.
As regards to Ebay,i have never really had any probs with either uk or oz one.The best advice i can give is to buy from a seller that has a good feedback rating (98 % or more) and/or also has a online shop selling such parts as they will want to keep their good record.
In the event it goes bad most transactions are covered by paypal buyer protection if you use paypal.(Definately worth doing)

GSXR 750 TB's on mine using a ST170 inlet manifold.

The TB's are separates that I re-spaced to suit the ST inlet.

TB injector holes blocked and car is running with the standard Ford injectors.
