    I'm about convinced to do this to the 429 in my 65 Deville. Already converted ignition to HEI.

      It will completely change the car for the better. I was surprised how much I like it. Thanks for watching!

    I installed Holley EFI and after 2 years of nothing but problems I uninstalled it and put a new Holley Avenger Carb on. The car starts perfect cold or hot and super simple to set it up. You obviously have an old carburetor that has not been properly setup with a vacuum gauge. The EFI and Hyperspark Hype is just that, Hype. When you have any problem with the EFI or Hyperspark Units, you need to ship it back to Holley. Carbs are easy to adjust and fix. I don't need an expensive Electric fuel Pump and my car runs better on my Holley avenger Carb that it ever did the two years I had the EFI on. The truth is Carbureted cars perform just as good as EFI at 1/3 the price.

      Sounds like user error. Going on 3 years with a sniper and hyperspark on my SBF. Best upgrade ever, never go back to carbs

      Rotor ranger I'm on your side nothing but problems all he's doing is mocking the carburetor that's dirty put a brand new carburetor on it won't have all these problems forget that electronic bulshit you get a fuse that blows a dirty fuel injector you can't fix a lot of that on the side of the road if you're going across the The country

    When you had the hose clamps on the 02 bung was the time to tack weld it...not when the 02 sensor was in it. It could have damaged the 02 sensor.

      Minus the gasket of course if welding the entire bung around the perimeter of course.

    Question. Is the EGR built in to this unit? I have a 302 being stroked to 347 similar to your other build series and can't find anything online about it sadly. it's a 93 f150 with the OBD1. It's not carved, but I like this set up better.

    @wsttxC10_454 Год назад +1

    Great video as usual brotha, I noticed you changed the distributor from points type to an hei type was that necessary to do cause of the EFI or was it changed just because of preference?? I'm actually about to throw a stock type built 454 in my 84 C10 and contemplating EFI which would be a first for me.

    • @2carpros
      @2carpros  Год назад +1

      The Summit Racing EFI system works with all types of ignition!
      I'm impressed you spotted the difference. My old distributor failed on the final scene of the shoot so I had to order a new one and install it to finish the video. It had nothing to do with the EFI, just super unlucky failure of a part.
      Yeah this one would be a great option for you! Thanks for watching!

    • @jeffreyrigged
      @jeffreyrigged Год назад

      The summit one doesnt control timing. So you dist works just like it does with a carb off vacuum to advance. The hei though is a big improvement over points. I swapped to one from points on my centurion. Video is on my channel. It starts a ton easier and runs way better with it. Its a super simple swap. Im going to do a efi swap soon on that car. I really want to do the sniper, sniper 2 or fi tech so i can control timing but cost may make me go with one that doesnt and just keep my vacuum advance.

  • @75novaguy73
    @75novaguy73 4 месяца назад +1

    And now a year later the reviews for the summit efi are not good. I noticed many of the reviews had similar complaints. The problem im seeing with all the EFI units, summit, ace, holley etc they just don't appear to last. Im staying carbureted for now but im hoping the Holley Sniper EFI 2 fixed the issues the first one had. If you see this comment, could you update us with an honest one year review??? I scrolled through your videos and shorts and haven't seen anything else about it. Thanks

    • @2carpros
      @2carpros  4 месяца назад

      I just drove my car yesterday, mine is working great! Also did a build with a 302 with the Summit EFI and it is still working great. I think there are unlucky units as are with everything and those people tend to leave reviews more often than people that are happy with their product. Thanks for watching!

  • @bryanhinds8522
    @bryanhinds8522 5 месяцев назад +1

    any well tuned carb will run as good as a EFI, BUT long distance drives with hi and low altitude drives the EFI will adjust on the fly, hard to beat.

    • @2carpros
      @2carpros  5 месяцев назад

      Very true. You also have to know how to tune a carb. This is just plug and play. Thanks for watching!

  • @thePatGabriel
    @thePatGabriel 10 месяцев назад

    Does this EFI require an aftermarket ECU if the car doesn't have one or is the ECU built in? If the ECU is included in the EFI, does it have an OBD2 port for codes? Looking to potentially EFI a car with a Gen 1 350 Chevy Smallblock which has no computer in it whatsoever.

      Changed both of those things. Even had it tunned on the dyno, still bogs. I think my 850 just had an inherent problem that I just didn't want to look into anymore. Thanks for watching!

    You're talking about a carburetor that's probably has issues all carburetors don't have bogging problems so you need to specify that carburetors are the best and they always will be I would drive across the United States with a carburetor before I would drive across the United States with the Holley sniper nothing but trouble electrical wires computer boards one little thing shorts out and you're on the side of the road you don't have 12 volt power kiss your ass goodbye
