Great job, really appreciated the level of detail.

I am trying to decide on Holley Sniper EFI or the FiTech for my Pontiac engine. FiTech is a few hundred cheaper.
I going to run a external fuel pump. I run one now for my Holley 770 carb.
Good job on the FiTech install. 👍

[@hodgepodgegarage3911]

Thanks! That’s the main reason I went with fitech, I read a bunch of reviews and got concerned about some of the negative ones but a lot of them seem to be wiring issues like I had with my tach signal, I’ve got no complains about the fitech!

[@chrisk9403]

The white wire from fitech did u connect it to red wire that gose to distributer

[@hodgepodgegarage3911]

Yes I tied it straight into the distributor wire cuz I was having a hard time finding a ignition source that stayed on during cranking

[@tonydilauro8858]

Will this set up work with a factory intake? And do you know if the scope will fit right?

[@hodgepodgegarage3911]

It should bolt up just fine to a factory intake, the scoop fit except the fuel lines came into the back of the throttle body so I ended up cutting 2 channels in the scoop base and am using a smaller air filter to clear it but fitnent and location wise it sits where it did with the carb

[@tr3vorb438]

What do you expect your total investment into the EFI TA will be when the car is completely done?

[@hodgepodgegarage3911]

You mean into the overall car or just the efi install?

[@tr3vorb438]

@@hodgepodgegarage3911 The overall car project. Just wondering if you have anything in mind.

[@hodgepodgegarage3911]

@@tr3vorb438 oh yikes lol that’s a hard number to calculate, I paid 900$ for the shell of the car 5 years ago since then I bought 3 parts cars totaling 4600$ I’ve got probably around 2000$ just in the interior and gauges, goodness knows how much in just trim pieces, the vintage air kit was 1900$ the efi was 850$ but I’ve also sold a ton of stuff like I said I had 3 parts cars and what I didn’t use I sold or is in my storage shed, so honestly I have no idea if I were to guess taking into account stuff I’ve sold I’d say somewhere around 8000$ maybe? Lol I could be way off cuz it’s been a 5 year process lol
