  • Here we try to cover as much detail as possible on the installation of the Holley Sniper 1100 after our conversion has been done to adapt it to take the place of the stock 34-pict carburetor.

    Man, you did a great job explaining the sniper system. I have a 383 stroker with the sniper and have a good understanding, but you helped me a lot.

      Highly doubt it. Jenvey and others already have IDA, IDF, and DCOE throttle bodies. Holley's is all geared for replacement of American carburetors, and this is a retrofit of an Autolite carb and all the vehicles that had them.

    Great system, I have set one up on a LS, I had no idea they made one for a smaller motor like a VW. Very informative video, there are a few things I would do different but most of them are just personal preference as opposed to it being wrong. The only things I would really change is the temp pickup, that air filter, and I would likely run the fuel lines in the tunnel like a factory EFI car..... Yes, I am a glutton for punishment.. Good thinking on the raised idle once HOT.

    • @lbermud
      @lbermud Před rokem +1

      It's not made for VW specifically. It's just a retrofit from what Holley makes for vintage single barrel American carbureted car motors. czcams.com/video/f5E-M3b8Woc/video.html

  • @donniesthing5574
    @donniesthing5574 Před 2 lety

    Does the temperature sensor assume the engine temp bellows and air regulator flaps installed, or doesn’t it matter? The last person apparently felt the temp regulator system wasn’t necessary. So, all the flaps, springs and bellows are missing. I’m just thinking that in winter the engine may never warm up properly. 🤔🤷‍♂️ Thanks. It would have been nice to have a detailed look at running the cables and wires through the chassis. Thanks for putting this together.

    • @red-emotorsports1212
      @red-emotorsports1212  Před 5 měsíci

      The top of the throttle body is slightly larger than a 34pict carb. You can fit a rubber based air filter meant for a Solex but not steel. Plastic housing may fit if you carefully heat with a heat gun and open it up a bit but we haven't tried. There's enough meat on the throttle body casting to possibly have a competent machinist cut it down to the proper size

    • @red-emotorsports1212
      @red-emotorsports1212  Před 2 lety +5

      Too small for a 2276 unless you have mostly displacement and otherwise mild can and heads (stump puller). We run this on our shop truck with a 2022cc (76x92) with cheater cam and panchito heads from CB Performance and it does great. Anything more aggressive than that the single throttle plate would be too restrictive IMHO

      We're a Vw engine building business and I've been wanting to change over to a simple efi system for most of our complete customer engine builds. This set up looks idea for our Type1 1776cc with cheater cam. I'm just wondering how I find out the cost of this kit? Also, we build a lot of Vw aircooled 2L & 1800 Type4 engines that originally have twin single carbies. I imagine it wouldn't be hard to come up with a twin throttle body version for these Type4 engines?

      @gbaker929 Před 2 lety
