Need to confirm but pretty sure my neighbor has a sniper system he took off one of his cars. Wonder if it would work on this. I'll have to see what one he has

[ChargerX3]

Probably have to upgrade the fuel tank, pump and lines to the engine. That's a bit more expensive if you do.

[Duck Vader]

I'm going to look into it. Or maybe I'll swap the carb from the chevelle on if it will work and put the efi on the chevelle for now. Just something to think about

[Chris GTO TT]

I think the biggest thing you need is a return fuel line. Then you run an in-line pump

[Duck Vader]

It's weird with the 2 tanks apparently. Even the shop said if I try it, they see a lot come in with issues. Especially on the dual tanks.

Looking into it, the carb on the chevelle is more than adequate for the truck. So the question is do I get a similar set up for about $650 on the truck, or do something different on the chevelle and transfer it over? Just needs a Ford kick down plate for $15

[Chris GTO TT]

Yeah probably because you have to switch the feed and return and people probably don't account for that.

Little album of the piece of shit from cars and coffee this morning

[tabasco122]

god that wiring lmao

[Duck Vader]

Right? It gives me anxiety every time I pop the hood. But I also just wanted to get it running. Not exactly sure what I want to do with the wiring. Pull it all and run a new kit entirely, or just try and clean it up more.

[Duck Vader]

So previous owners at one point swapped engines and rear end. Tag says 400 engine. I have 460 from a car. Rear is supposed to be a dana 70 limited slip 4.10. It's got an open diff dana 60 with 3.55. Going to see if I can source a decent 70 with 410 and limited slip.

[DCIV]

I love my 4:10’s. I’m in total support of that!

I love my 3.55s, but I also have a 10spd and 500lbft of tq sooo...

[DCIV]

ford did efi with dual tanks so just look at how they did it. IIRC both feed and return lines run through the valve so fuel returns to the correct tank.

[Duck Vader]

Was able to get a new in box holley 4160 750 cfm carb for $250. So Ya. Going that route for now. Saving up for the big block chevy swap in the chevelle

[ChargerX3]

Yea carbs are cheap and reliable. Holly will take a little work to tune vs a Carter/AFB/Edelbrock by the way.

[vr4]

shoulda gone with 4 weber 32/36s

[Duck Vader]

Has a holley now.

Camaro has a carter. Chevelle has a demon.

[Duck Vader]

Haven't installed it yet, but new carb



Local guy restores old fords had a spare one of these. Gave it to me for free. Just need to find the cover that goes between it and the clear shield and I will toss in it.



Also testing the limits of this thing. Loaded up the bed and man, I think I am going to need to upgrade the rear leafs if I keep doing this much weight in there.
