I miss my old square body tail gate suburbans….i had an ‘81 k10 and an ‘86 k20…..both SBC 350 trucks but the ‘81 k10 had a black 290hp goodwrench replacement motor in it and the 3/4 ton k20 had the factory smogged/choked out 350 in it and was a turd…..a very WET seperated turd at that…..the ‘81 half ton 6 lug was a battle wagon/beast and i miss that truck still to this day some 25yrs later……now to keep that squarebody spirit alive i have a ‘73 C10 short bed fleetside complete with a vortech v-3sci supercharged LS and all!!!!! That lil truck is a riot and i just love all the sounds it makes!! …….ive had a couple ‘67/‘72 c10’s in between the times as well…..a particular ‘68 c10 longbed with a 5.3 LS (asa cammed) 3000 stalled th350 and 12bolt 3.73’s was the inspiration behind the ‘73 c10 short bed build……very very similar components motor/trans/rear, with the addition of a supercharger to the mixture, and how can you go wrong!!!
I love the fact that you help people with disabilities. And it seems like you are saying everything off the top of your head in all your videos. I see good things in your future!!!
Thanks for making this video. I have been wanting to upgrade from my Holly carb to EFI. I was looking at the Holly Sniper but a buddy told me about Ace's. I have watch a few other people and was still on the fence but you sold it man. Going to order mine real soon. Thanks again.
They are starting at $599 right now….thats nearly $1000 less than the problematic heat soaked ecu sniper garbage…..holley is only good for the terminator X when converting to efi…….other than that their carbs are their bread and butter….if you want TBI efi you cannot beat the aces setup …..pound for pound , dollar fot dollar….i have my killshot ecu mounted inside the vehicle behind the dash out of harms way and out of sight……not on top of a vibrating 225* heat soaked engine bay😂😂😂😂 wtf were u thinking sniper/fitech/ and any of the other competitors that wanted to keep costs down by mounting the ECU within the throttle body😂😂😂😂……being cheap ends up REALLY expensive!!!
It will be a night and day difference…..up untill you get all your parts in order for a LS swap…..and then at that point you can still use it on a carbed intake for your LS if you wish to keep that traditional Small Block look……my nova loved its 4.8 LS swap untill i put a .030 over LQ9 (370”) with LS3 heads into it only to mount a LSA supercharger on it not even within a year later, and now im buttoning up a 408” stroker for it cause a hi compression supercharged 370” LQ9 just isnt enough (for me)…….technically the 4.8 with a little 220/220 cam and 3000 stalled th350 was more than enough and was a whole new animal compared to the aluminum headed built 355 gen 1 small block it replaced!!!!
@RoadKingRobert before I was getting 5 to 9 mpg, now 12 to 16, when I can stay off the skinny pedal, lol. Mind you, this has a 454 with a turbo 400 trans.
@crazycaseyscustoms the computer can control the timing. Technically, you only lock it out during start-up to verify that you're at 15° before tdc (top dead center), then you can unlock and let the ECM do its job. I hope this helps.

I agree
Thank you I really appreciate that.
I love my killshot system….night and day difference on my sons 1967 mustang 289
I'm going to be installing this on my 1991 g20 van. Thank you for this video!!
@TRAVISVANZUIDEN you are welcome. Thank you for watching.
Ur gonna love it!!!
You used my favorite word “essentially”
The gasket they supplied with the notches is sitting on the windshield.

@ChalkySac I really appreciate that. Thank you. I am glad that I could help.

Im going o havo look into one of these systems for my nova.
I'm very impressed with it.

What kind of fuel mileage are you getting with the efi ?
@RoadKingRobert before I was getting 5 to 9 mpg, now 12 to 16, when I can stay off the skinny pedal, lol. Mind you, this has a 454 with a turbo 400 trans.
Did you have to make any adjustments or do anything special with the transmission?
@@matthewebke8714 I did not. If you have a 700r4 more than likely due to the kick down linkage.
Are you "just" keeping the timing at 15 degree, or letting the system control that also ? I notice in the video, the timing always says 15 degree
@tomnyk63 So for the ride home, I kept it at 15 for fuel Learn, and then I unlocked the distributor to run magnetic timing after that.
Can the computer not control the timing, @@TreerowRescue? Just wondering why you unlocked it.
@crazycaseyscustoms the computer can control the timing. Technically, you only lock it out during start-up to verify that you're at 15° before tdc (top dead center), then you can unlock and let the ECM do its job.
I hope this helps.
