What I’ve heard was there were issues with fuel distribution when using a duel plane. Some cylinders ran dangerously lean under hard throttle. I’m pretty sure I heard the guys on Engine Masters make that comment when testing some intakes. It was not a test of the efi unit itself. Without a dyno and o2 sensor for every cylinder it would be difficult to know. Probably drag racers who were good at reading plugs could tell.

My dad and i messed around with this on an Air Gap and a Victor Junior. Dual plane can work pretty well if you run a spacer or hollow out the divider, but you will get a reading on the MAP that jumps around a bit which did cause minor issues at part throttle. In theory you do lose some of the low RPM/load benefits of a dual plane because EFI doesn't need the air velocity to draw fuel out of a carb, which is helped by dividing the barrels. But EFI does keep the benefits of the longer runners.

The problem is nobody looks at the Sniper for what it is. It is a complete stand alone EFI system for $1200. If you want better then get a Terminator X Stealth. Buying a Sniper then complaining about it is like going to Walmart for a steak and then complaining that it’s not quality butcher shop meat. You didn’t pay for top quality meat you paid for a budget system.
@adamballinger1358Ай бұрын
You think 1200$ is a "drop in the bucket" well its not for most guys . If the sniper systems reliably did what they advertise there wouldnt be a problem . I think its more like going to the butcher for a quality steak and recieving a golden corral quality steak. Self tuning without a mass air meter bahahahahaha
@DirtySideGetsDownАй бұрын
I never said $1200 is a drop in the bucket. $1200 is a lot of money. What I am saying is compared to a quality EFI system it is cheap. Price a Haltec, Motec, Fueltech etc. plus a throttle body, all sensors and injectors then see how it adds up. The sniper has to be low quality to hit the price point. You will never find a for me free system at this price point. I have had my hands on plenty of these that were rock solid once I was done, they can be great when installed correctly.

Let me start, by saying I love most of the OEM based, EFI systems the hobby has used over the past 30 years. That said, for all of the money, Holley has thrown at the Sniper series, and all of the acquisitions of all of smaller independent legacy brands as well, I find the current RFI issue to be unacceptable... Obviously, this controller design and packaging is not as robust as it should be... I appreciate the "craft" enthusiastic users and quasi tech support independent guys like you, who really provide value, to the poor guys, who spend good money, and so much of their precious little hobby time, trying to troubleshoot a system, that has gone thru at least three major changes (sniper, sniper II, Terminator x, or whatever), and still haven't addressed this inherently unstable base design RFI vulnerability, it's plain pathetic. One has got to 🤔 think, a larger, remote mounted ECM, with the equivalent protective electronic filtering circuitry and a decently effective "faraday" cage design similar to what the OEM's have used for eons now, is long overdue.. You read story after story, of how guys buy these things, have problems, get help, buy the next "Gen", only to suffer some other drivability/reliability issue..
@DirtySideGetsDownАй бұрын
The thing most people don’t think about is to make the sniper better it would have to cost more. The big mistake Holley made was trying to make an EFI system for under $1000. They did it, but it meant that it wasn’t great. If you go into a sniper knowing its budget EFI and are very meticulous with the installation they can be really good. Also, the sniper 2 seems to have really addressed all of the original sniper issues. I make my living selling and supporting these things and I have yet to have a sniper 2 have any of the issues the sniper 1 was known for.

Glad I could help!!
Was going to suggest some kind of adjustment, then I saw your eccentric adjustment, looks great!
I always kind of had the idea of making g this as a kit to sell, so I figured it would need some adjustment to compensate for manufacturing differences of these presses. I’m sure the uprights don’t fluctuate much, but I’d imagine the part my pieces get welded to will by a few thousandths or so in width.
Fantastic idea. 🤘
Thank you sir. It feels a little overkill, but overkill is underrated. Lol
Hi , i have a holley sniper 2300 and I want to use a dual plane intake wtith a holley 17-90 adapter , do you think can works ?
You shouldn’t have any problem with that at all.
@@DirtySideGetsDown Thanks
Wear did you source your replacement gear from? I got one from summit and it just slips on not wanting to install it without having it press on.
If it’s a Ford then you definitely don’t want to use one that just slides on. Chevy gears go on like that. We have them at efisystempro.com
@DirtySideGetsDown right on thanks!
that vette is beautiful.
Thank you sir. I am not really a Corvette guy, but I know a deal when I see one and this was for sure that. If you or anyone you know might be interested in owning it, keep an eye out. It will be for sale in a few weeks after I fix a few more things on it.
That supposed to say on a dyno not a dump
I don’t think I’m picking up what you’re throwing down
I have a brand new 383 in a 90 k5 blazer with the sniper2 and the hyperspark distributor. The engine was built by smeding performance and they tuned the sniper on a dyno, when I have it in overdrive and I’m just cruising it at normal speeds it loses power and it won’t recover until I put the throttle all the way to the floor. It doesn’t do it in third gear when I take it outta OD it runs great I’m hoping it’s a tuning issue that you can help me with,
Sounds like there could be a weird rich or lean spot in the area where the OD puts it on the fuel table. I don’t really do any tuning outside of my day job at efisystempro.com but if you want to email through our site I can probably take a look
Ok thank you I’ve got a little more work to do on it before it’s gonna be ready to drive on a regular basis but I’ll touch base with you in the middle of April
Car turned out Amazing can’t wait to see it at the track. Great Job.
You and me both!
Looks & sounds great, Turbo! :) Awesome work.
That's a nasty sounding big block! I approve the flame delete
Thank you sir. We tried to modernize the look as much as we could. After some trips to the track we will be modernizing the performance some too depending on the times it runs. That will be ok upcoming episodes.
Hey boss I’m fixing my own 79cj7 and I’m make g my own body mounts and was wondering if u knew the measurements of holes and placements
Even Holley tech told me the same too..
This video is probably fine for somebody that knows how to do this but I don't know what a coil is. I don't know where the coil is. I don't know what to check with the voltmeter to see if it is working or not. It's not an instruction video for the idiots. It's an instruction video for people that just about know how to do it.
It wasn’t intended to be an instructional video, more entertainment based.
Excellent video
Thank you very much!
Honestly I was so confused. Thanks.
Glad I could help. Keep an eye out for more useful content, plenty in the works
Thank you so much for this video. I almost destroyed my new msd distributor trying to change the gear but I come home and watched this video went back the next day and changed it with no problem....
Glad I could help. Keep an eye out for more useful content, plenty in the works
Appreciate the video, and thanks for sending me your channel
This is spot on, took me thirty minutes to solve a problem getting progressively worse for over a year now. I did find that my Throttle Body has been on continuously since 2020 and was pretty dunked up. I used carb cleaner to clean up the secondary and primary butterflies.
Glad to hear it was helpful
I'm just getting into powder coating. I started with cheap cast aluminum from an old boat resto project. It has been quite a learning curve.
One thing I have found with cast aluminum especially if it’s engine parts, I like to pre-bake them to burn grease and oils out. I’ll put them in the oven a little above the powder cure temp so that doesn’t happen and ruin the powder.
@@DirtySideGetsDown I had my best luck pre-baking atleast 50F over the bake temp for minimum 30 mins, powder coat thin and back in the oven quickly, bake, then second light coat and back in the oven quick. I still get pinholes, but significantly less than other processes I've tried.
