It was recommended by the tuner guy I used. Very happy with it so farI was close on the Sniper
Anyone have a guess as to when these will be showing up on swap meet tables?
Sounds good thanks for the info the system zi used I set it up with the fuel pump inside the tank it seems to work very well. And how do I find this Holley group.I just ordered a Sniper setup yesterday. Ordered the basic kit in that I didnt want the external fuel pump.
Ordered a Tanks Inc. GPA 2 internal pump which was recommended. I already have a Tank setup for FI. Also purchased a Aeroquip filter. Speed shop I went through gave me a good discount. The kit was listed for $999.00 and with their with their discount it was $920.00. Gave discounts on the pump and filter.
I’ll purchase the fittings and push-lock hose next week.
Also, there’s a Holley FI user group you can join. It’s not sanctioned by Holley however their techs participate.
The vehicle I purchased still has the matching numbers for 440 but I’m glad the previous owner built the engine so to me it was a no brainer to update it. The rest of the car is bone stock except for the transmission tranny cooler exhaust rims and tires. And I also experienced a big horsepower gain fuel economy drivability. I put it on the Dino it’s getting 260 hp and 320 foot pounds of torque. The stock horsepower for 78 for 440 was 150I had my 440 swapped over to EFI (FiTech) and electronic ignition a couple of years ago. My 68 300 has never run better. I have never dyno’ed the car, but I can tell the HP is way up. Through the process I also had to switch out the gas pedal linkage to a cable.... that switch seemed to make the car more responsive too.
I realized I was making a big commitment to switching from a stock engine to a modified engine, but now looking back, I am glad I did. Besides the performance improvements, the reliability of the engine now is great.

I figure that's the reason for them showing up, a correctly working one will still be on the car. Look at how many people have trouble with putting a petronix on a car, and all that is doing is moving the amperage out of the points.Man, I can’t imagine buying one of these used. Fairly complicated for the novice shade tree.
Not me, I don't need a pressure, feedback, carburetor. I'm good with a regular carburetor and a air/fuel guage.That is a brave man to take a gamble on a EFI from a swapmeet. Might get a better return on a bunch of scratch crads and lower blood pressure.
You create your timing map. Self correcting would include a knock sensor.
IMO timing is super easy, these engines all want basically the same map given a certain modification level. I've spent about 10% of my tuning on timing, QUOTE]
A knock sensor would be nice, especially if your right on the ragged edge with compression ratios and, or crappy open heads. I agree that timing is simple enough, I guess I'm thinking knock sensor.
Do the self tuning ones have a problem with this or is it more your combo., 90% on fuel including the transition circuits
What about the Holley mat or the aeromotive foam sump system?So you guys that went pump in tank, what tanks are you running? I am going to a pump in fuel cell system because the 65 Fury tank from Vans doesn't have that option.
