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

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

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

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

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

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

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.

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.

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 wrote: ↑Sat Sep 26, 2026 3:24 am It's weird with the 2 tanks apparently.

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
