Hey Bud, I'm working on a similar project (replacing the tbi on a 1990 w350) and have appreciated your videos. Saves me going through the fuel pressure regulator BS. What did you do for your throttle cable? Figure I gotta replace mine to switch to the stud/cap setup.
@@MoonBuiltGarage Do you remember the part(s) you needed? I've been searching but the pics online haven't been enough to make me confident, lol. Did you cut the "ball" off the end of the cable?
I think I just took the ball fitting off of the carb that I was replacing, and mounted it onto the Sniper. I didn't change anything on my old throttle cable
Someone just asked this a couple of days ago...here's what I told them: It's supposed to work on the stock fuel system...just add an electric pump and go, but I had some issues...and I have other videos showing those issues. I'm not blaming Holley for that, some of those were obviously my own doing, but I would recommend running a sump-style feed from the tank like I am currently doing. Ever since I added the sump to my tank I have had 0 problems with fuel feed or pressure
Probably not...but it would be easy enough to increase the battery connection cable...or add battery terminal or bus connection under the hood, but Holley may frown on that...they're pretty adamant that the Sniper be connected directly to the battery
I had to refer back to the wiring diagram since its been a while since I installed the Sniper, but yes...the Red wire goes directly to the battery while the Pink wire goes to a switched power source

Was looking into getting a kit for my 83 RC, great video. Appreciate the details on some of the issues we might encounter, new subscriber.
Glad it was helpful!
That looks awesome! Great video!
Thanks bud!!
Wondering if you can send me youre timing settings, wop, idle, and cruise. Just installed a full sniper kit on my 318.

I used my original throttle cable...I rigged up an end on the Sniper that would accept the cable end

Cool, I'll try that. Thanks again for posting your videos!
Could I use this on a stock fuel system on a 84 dodge d150? Would appreciate the input thank you.

My battery is located in the truck, that doesn't look like enough positive lead.

So your pink wires have to be on switched power and not on continuous power through cranking?

Can you use the sniper on stock fuel system?
