KL47 Millenia intake manifold on DE

atx_mx3 · Post by **atx_mx3** » September 21st, 2013, 3:31 pm

Did a quick search and couldn't find all the answers....What am I getting myself into?

My k8 manifold can't be helping me any on the DE and the VRIS vacuum actuators and solenoids are all jacked up and non-operational.

I was able to score a KL47 manifold, without injectors, EGR and TB for $40. I would like to use it, but I want to make sure I'm not going to cause more problems than I fix.

What do I do about the EGR?? Use the K8 TB? What intake gasekts should I use?

So do you have a KL47 ZE throttle body bolted to a curved neck Millenia manifold or are you trying to fit a Straight neck ZE manifold to your car? You can use a DE IM or even a KLG4 if your concerned about using the egr and just swap over the KL47 ZE throttle body and that way atleast your intake ports will match not like the square ZE or millenia one.

I have a Millenia KL47 curved neck manifold WITHOUT the TB and EGR.
Can I use the K8 throttle body on the KL47 manifold?

***After looking at pictures from my swap, the DE EGR seems to be on the head, SO i assume I can just block the KL47 EGR locations and be done with that.

I ran a K8 throttle body on my millenia curve neck mani for awhile with no problems.
I suggest getting a KL47 throttle body asap though as you will be down on power.
I think there's 5+ mm difference in bore size. I noticed a big jump in power when switching over...

Looks like ill be going to the junkyard this weekend to get one. Does the K8 throttle cable still work with the curve neck and kl47 TB?

yes, you will just have to modify/bend cable bracket alittle.

Unless your going to a Junkyard in japan, good luck. The KL47 code coresponds to the JDM KLZE motor, not the KL01 that you will find on probes/626 although they would be better than the k801 throttlebody from your K8. Hence why I asked you before what style intake manifold you had as I have never seen a millenia intake manifold stamped KL47, those #'s are stricktly for the throttle body stamps. Although Ild love to be proven wrong and gain a lil' extra knowledge

millenia throttle bodies are stamped KL47

Ah my apologies then I stand corrected, are the Intakes actually stamped that way as well then?

No, millenia curve intake manifolds are not stamped KL47

Thanks for the input guys. I'm in the process of building a block-off plate for the manifold. Once that is done and the manifold is cleaned up, I'll be installing it.

EDIT- What should I do about the EGR pipe? Anyone happen to know the thread pitch and size of the hole?

At one time I knew the size.

I used the threaded plug end of the egr tube that came with my headers and welded a cap on the end. Works perfectly for blocking off the port in the exhaust manifold.
I have another plug left over if interested I could weld it up for ya?
