Holley Sniper Intake Manifold finally installed ( 06-12-22 )
 

It's finally time to install the intake for the last time which means I should probably torque down the valley cover.

and I actually used a torque wrench

More notes

Did I ever mention how much I love installing injectors.

Yes a 3 Way Allen wrench comes in handy when assembling the rails.

So this injector seems to be the issue that is preventing me from installing the rail.

Rail is back off yet again.

So I removed all of the brackets again and installed the rails everything was good.

Here is the culprit.

Off to my Grandfathers Vise.

All better

Finally done and ready to be installed but being honest I need Taco's

What brand injectors? They kinda look like Holley. Have you ever used whatever brand they are before? I need new injectors , So I’m trying to find out what’s good

Thanks,
Jimbo

I bought the Holley Injectors as part of the package. Kinda wanted to keep it all the same however I am not sure it really matters.

Indicatory Wiring relocation (( 06-12-22 ))
 

It was late and I had a little left in me after a very long day. So I decided to do one more small project and oddly enough it was stupid easy. I walked over to my box of grommet and the first grommet I found fit perfectly.

and the good news is I had two of them and I had enough left over wire to extend both wire looms.

How is it possible that I used all of these tools today.

http://garagescene.net/_data/i/uploa...d7d84dd-me.jpg

I'm reminded of how possible it is whenever I work on the car.... :D

Yep, That Fender Is Still On The Ground ((06-15-22))
 

Ugh, but the good news is Scott is going to swing by and help me hang the fender tonight.

Fender is on and will need some more adjusting but it is close enough.

It is coming together, Marty! I am envious of your attention to detail. All the little things you're doing definitely will add up to a beautiful and reliable ride for sure!

I am taking notes on all your tips and tricks as well. I will be tackling the Vintage Air install and dash wiring on mine very soon.... Hopefully.

Thank you so much and my goal has been to make the car easy to service and hopefully reliable.

The Vintage Air install was fun and if you need to borrow the AC line crimper I loan it out for a small $25.00 donation to the charity I work with and the good part is you get a tax donation.

Looks like more of my ADD issue's are surfacing. (( 06-18-22 ))
 

I did something different this time before I started working on the car. I actually went for Taco's

My goal is to hide the Injector Harness as much as possible.

I used Tessa Tape at the harness plug

Power Master Alternator Is 165 amps enough for EFI (( 06-20-22 ))
 

So serious question is a 165 amp alternator enough for the Holley Terminator X EFI ?

Continuing with the Manifold install I cut the vacuum lines to length.
