What!
You should ask rpnova if he wants to buy it. He bought mine despite knowing the history of the POS. It helped ease the pain getting half what I paid for it. I was completely willing to throw it in the dumpster. |

I bought mine thru Summit Racing. After 90 days they told me I had to deal with Holley. Holley said since I didn't buy direct from them I had to deal with Summit. Not only does Holleys product suck, so does thier customer service. Never again.

Had the same experience with a FAST system, same issues you we're having with the sniper. my guess is they all will have these issues. went back to the GM ECU and the engine just runs so much better.

Re: any good / bad feedback on howell or affordable fuel injection ?
I used the Howell kit on a Jeep CJ 5 with stock straight 6. This was close to 20 years ago. It ran way better than it ever did with a carb. I remember the Jeep kit used a bunch of stock GM parts. In fact, we used our own computer and throttle body from an 89’ gmc with v6. Howell provided the wiring harness, sensors, an adaptor to bolt on the throttle body, and a new chip for the computer.
