Sniper Posted December 2, 2021 Report Posted December 2, 2021 I'm building a dual TBI system using microsquirt. http://www.yourolddad.com/efi Quote
James_Douglas Posted December 2, 2021 Report Posted December 2, 2021 I am working on a manifold adapter to my edmunds dual 1BBL manifold to take a Holley Sniper 2BBL. Given what we know about the physical fuel distribution issues that have been discussed at length here on the forum.... ...I am thinking the the dual 1BBL physical layout with a Holley Sniper feeding it may yield the improvement that the Dodge Engineers figured out then they went to a dual 1BBL Carters and dual exhaust set up that ended up with 136 HP on a 265 engine.

Andydodge Posted December 2, 2021 Report Posted December 2, 2021 Other than to say installing the Langdons HEI was the best thing I had done to the 41 Plymouth when I owned it.......the car had been converted to 12 volts when I bought it, I bought the HEI & the round style coil, shipped and delivered promptly to me here in Oz, I installed it without any issue......new 8mm plug leads and regaped plugs to, from memory, 45thou and it ran great......started even better.......as my car had had a late model key start installed when it was converted to 12 volts I could have the drivers window open, lean in and turn the key and within a couple of turns over it would start.............ran well, seemed if anything to have more get up & go......I thoroughly recommend the HEI........unfortunately I sold the car like a dope..........these are the only pic I have showing the HEI & new leads..............andyd 1 Quote
Wildwest Posted December 3, 2021 Author Report Posted December 3, 2021 I am getting an carb adapter spacer made a friend that is cutting flanges with his water jet he is keeping the pattern. If you decide to put one one yours. I’ll keep you posted on the updates Quote
Wildwest Posted February 21, 2022 Author Report Posted February 21, 2022 This is the carb spacer I made. I used a jegs 103118 gas tank fitting for the vent line required for the Holley sniper it made the vent line very easy I just drained the tank left it open for a week then drilled a 1/2 hole. The fitting installed from the outside like a moly bolt Quote
