not difficult if u know what you are doing. better off getting some throttle bodies and making a custom inlet. can be done, ive built an engine using bike tb's for a mate recently and is working well.

yes. bike tb's are cheaper. not ideal in length from the butterfly to the inlet valve as the body is quite stubby on bike tb's but if you get a custom made manifold with longer inlet it will sort that.

would need:
ecu, loom, injectors, fuel pressure regulator, longer trumpets, air filters, fuel lines, mapping, arp con rod bolts, sbd cam belt rollers,
custom inlet should be about £250ish.
