Re: My 63 Project

Great Build! Just read the whole thing! How much clearance do you have on the bottom side of the driveshaft with the flipped crossmember?

That was a dang good question. And I didn't know. So I went out and took a picture.

Looks to be about an inch and a half.

Rusted Tank

So this is the original Red tank that I purchased, painted and installed. While I was installing my SNIPER EFI system, I was installing the new fuel pump when I noticed the blisters in the paint on the bottom of the tank. When I rubbed one of the blisters... GUSHER!!!! And I had just put 15 gallons of 91 octane in the tank.....

Re: My 63 Project

Because I SUCK at tuning carburetors and because I couldn’t really find the right combination for this motor.... I purchased the Holley Sniper EFI system.....

This system is AMAZING!!!! a single O2 sensor... high pressure fuel pump... return line too the tank... couple of wires.... VROOM!!!!!

Re: My 63 Project

This is the video of the first key turn start with the new Sniper EFI... Listen too the motor rev up.. and then immediately slow down too the idle RPM that we set with the handheld unit....
