Fbx-Ak, Holley Sniper fuel injection. How cool is that! What is your experience? Before and after, if you had a comparision between the carburetor and injection.
My edelbrock is running very smooth. At first run we had some problems with leaks after shutting off the engine. I opened the cover and saw that the float needle valves were clogged. After cleaning with brake cleaner, the engine is starting immediately now and everything is dry. No gas smell is a very new experience for me with this car :-)
I hope that this weekend i can take a testdrive.
The Edelbrock Performer is very simple carburetor, so the most vacuum lines i can deactivate.
No heated air port, no EGR, no pcv/canister port, no choke diaphragm port...
Only PCV and distributor ports (time vacuum port & manifold vacuum port). My distributor vacuum line is connected to the time vacuum port. Aha, after after reading the Edelbrock manual i bought a new fuel pump: Carter M6886 with 5.5 to 6.5 psi max. pressure. The most mechanical fuel pumps have 7.5 psi and it's too much for some Edelbrock carburetors. I put my old fuel pump to the spare parts.
Griff, the technical discussions are very interesting and that's it why i like this topic and the users here. ;-)
