Very Satisfied with the workmanship. A pleasure to work with. Finally an honest shop. Will be back for more work on my 67 cont convert. Cudos to Maffett Motorwerks. These guys are a true blessing...
Great to hear that it makes that kind of difference. I've got a '68 Continental 462 Coupe in the UK and absolutely love it, but the carb definitely needs work. Struggles on hills, sputters a lot under heavy throttle, stalls off the line sometimes. I'm suspecting the fuel floats need adjusting, but this would just make a world of difference to it. I never plan on selling it, so in the long run its gotta be worth it. Great work gents
Great video, a family friend had a '67 Continental and probably would have loved the fuel injection, seems to make a lot of difference 😀, looking forward to more of the Plymouth when y'all have time, thanks for sharing and as always "Howdy from Texas "!!
That is great Greg! the fuel injection is a huge difference that is for sure! Plymouth content is on the way We promise! thank you for following and the continued support.
@@MaffettMotorwerks how and where did you mount the coolant sensor? I’m getting ready to install a Holley sniper on my 65 Lincoln Continental convertible.
I absolutely love the color on this land yacht. Gorgeous. Y'all did a great job again! Always fun to see what my husband is doing at his second home, LOL
If the car was equipped with a PCV spacer plate you won't have issue with the throttle lever, you may also be lucky and the sending unit has a built in return line!!
Great looking Lincoln. I do not like the wheels because they take the attention away from the car itself. I always left the hubcaps on mine. I bought a set of white spokes 15X8 with P275-60-15 Radial T/A & hubcaps. I have a 67 convertible with a mild built 462 & the Sniper Kit & a good stainless exhaust. The Sniper ran great with more power, smooth idle & increased mpg (Vehicle Had A Ford AOD) 28 MPG @ 75MPH & 550hp & 545ci MEL
Hey David! We have the manifold sent out to be re-welded and have pulled the whole front end off it so we can fix the valve issues. We also are rewiring the vehicle currently. This is a slow process but we are documenting it best we can for its return to RUclips! We will be getting it tagged and street legal next and then doing road trips with it. Thank you so much for your continued support!
Looks beautiful, smooth, roomy, great for trips. Think EFI be great for it. Saw someone else doing a will it start on a 67 white hardtop. In worse condition but they are the lux cars of yesteryear.
Fascinated how you created the fuel sending unit / return modification - seems you simply modified what was already there? That would be a neat skill to save money in custom units and tanks.
Well just popped in to say hello and that I subed to your channel due to restored channel said ya all were helping them so I did what they said ...godbless and looking forward to see how ya all do
Good Morning Great Video I am a few steps closer to getting my snipper 2 installed on my 1966 Lincoln continental by a licensed technician I found on Holley's website The technician stated there is no distributor for a 462 engine compatible with the snipper system is this true ? if so looking for a solution or a distributor to work with this system please advise Thanks
We needed fuel only and utilizes the stock distributor as a tach signal. We can’t speak on if there is a modern distributor to work but a quick call to Holley would make that answer very fast for you. Their tech department is amazing.
What did you hook the pink wire to for power in start position as the ignition wire does not have power In start position? We bought same kit and system will not remember parameters .
Winner winner chicken dinner! I’ll try to post a video of it . After 5 months of metal work and body repairs it will look nice the black beauty. Just working out the little bugs as they all have .
@@MaffettMotorwerks yea the throttle rod I tried to drill but has to be hardened lol just have to rig the throttle safely. Did the Dakota digital cruise and gauges so just getting it all lined up .
Did you have any issues with sticking gas pedal? Like taking off slow and you have to give more pressure and then pedal unsticks and it jumps too fast. Seems pedal sticks more when running engine then when engine is off . I lubed all moving parts as well. Any thoughts?
We have not had any issues with that but I would check the linkage at the throttle body and check it’s path make sure you have a strong enough return spring and that nothing else is binding holding the cable.
Hey nice car nice job I am going to do a 66 lincoln for a customer how long should this take so I can give Him ball park labor on this , Thank You for Your time Jim
Hey Jim feel free to shoot us an email we can go over our project times with you. The labor hours call for 24-35 hours depending on the vehicle and shop experience. Running the lines and diagnostics after the set up was the longest amount of time. Because if the self learn messes up at all through the calibration you have to start again.
Curious what do you mean when you say redo the suspension that car being a linking it was made to give the ultimate ride so I’m curious if the upgrade you’re talking about is about the comforting a ride or is it about lowering it and turned it into well not a Lincoln
The suspension from this era was in its time state of the art, but it does not age well. The car sits almost 8” lower than factory due to the wear of suspension components. We redid the whole suspension with a state of the art air ride system from ridetech. It rides worlds better than it ever has, and better than most cars on the road today. And it most definitely rides like a Lincoln should.
The part number would be : Part# 550-511K serial number would be specific per model and shouldn’t be shared outside of the manufacturer for repair or warranty.

It really does make a huge difference. We can’t recommend this enough.

Real nice job guys , and I love those old Lincolns 👍

thanks for the comment! it is incredible the difference the sniper kit makes
You are amazing Thank you !
Bring back the ole PLY!

I heard exhaust sweet sound
Looks beautiful, smooth, roomy, great for trips. Think EFI be great for it. Saw someone else doing a will it start on a 67 white hardtop. In worse condition but they are the lux cars of yesteryear.
Does EFI help get rid of some of the vacuum lines?

@@MaffettMotorwerks nice to be here and will be looking forward to your content . Godbless and stay safe
Where did you pull the pink wire to??? For power at crank and run?

What color blue AND what size wheels are on the car?......thanks
This is a midnight blue metallic I believe it’s called, and the wheels are 22” Daytons
What did you hook the pink wire to for power in start position as the ignition wire does not have power In start position? We bought same kit and system will not remember parameters .
We went to the "I" terminal at the starter solenoid. This has power under crank and ignition switch on.
@@MaffettMotorwerks super cool thx for fast reply I’ll see if that’s the one I have it hooked to unless his ignition switch is bad . Thx again

Yea I checked it all the customer said he dont care about it but it bothers me lol 😂. Thx for the reply I appreciate it

What's the part#, serial# on the efi unit
Hey Guys, interested video. will this system also fit in a 1964 Lincoln Continental? did you choose a return or returnless system? Thank you answer.
This would work on a 64 also, and we did the return system
What's the parts number and serial #
The part number would be : Part# 550-511K serial number would be specific per model and shouldn’t be shared outside of the manufacturer for repair or warranty.
Thank you
Ugly wheels ! You ruined it !
They fit the style the owner wanted to achieve with this vehicle, California low rider. But hey thanks for the view! Have a good one.
