I’ve heard they can’t run boost, but people still run low boost and it runs fine what did you end up doing?
@dirtytruckhotrodshop7829 Ай бұрын
They absolutely can run boost! They are limited in how much power you can make though. Just because of the size/quantity of injectors. 4-100 lb injectors can only support so much power. Over 11-12 psi I’m maxing out the injectors. You can upgrade the injectors though!

On the sniper 1 units we ran into issues with them getting the rfi from the air cleaner housing transfering it down the center rod. We started making the center rod out of delrin and running double gaskets at the base to stop it. Fixed several this way. There is also shielded covering you can buy from Mcmaster Carr. It's expensive but will take the interference away.

I've been running a Sniper Stealth on my Windsor since 2022. I chose that variant because of everyone having issues with the regular sniper (especially on Fords), and because I wanted the 4150 carb appearance. I haven't had a single issue with it. I'm running the Hyperspark distributor with a 6AL-2 box, and Ford Racing cut-to-fit plug wires. My alternator is a Gen3 200-amp, and out of an abundance of caution, I added an external ground cable. I think Holley should have just stopped selling the square sniper just sell the stealth instead of coming out with the V2. Just sayin...
@dirtytruckhotrodshop7829 11 ай бұрын
It does seem that anything with a distributor in the front was more problematic. I’ve gotten lots of messages about guys with other engines having the same issues too. This sniper 2 has been good so far. I went to great lengths to make the first one work and I’ve installed a lot of stand alones over the years and really never had issues. So this was a surprise to me.

My mechanic had me order a Sniper 2BBL from Summit, but then he put off the installation for 6 months (COVID), so the Sniper was already 3 months out of warranty (according to Summit) before it was installed. I've put 12,000 miles on the Sniper 2BBL and it still stalls at every intersection, so I know it's not "learning" or self-tuning. Neither Summit nor Holley will back me up. Probably time to go back to a carb.... UPDATE: I got a set of Davis United Ignition (DUI) "Live Wires" and the Sniper 2BBL did not stall today. The Live Wires are shielded for no RF noise. Shielding the DUI coil and distributor may improve things, further. Lesson learned: a Holley Sniper NEEDS these wires to run properly, so put you order in with performancedistributors.com

Yes with my sniper 1 I hate the throttle feel so stiff like you can’t just lightly push throttle… anyhow I’m having hesitation when I start off the car wants to die if I give it any throttle when taking off till I get to around 2,000 rpm.. or when I come to a stop and let off throttle it wants to die n cut out basically hesitation problem. Then sometimes it’ll run out nice once I get into higher rpms. The kid I bought it from was running stock 30 or 40 psi pump. So I put in 100 psi pump. It runs a little better of course it has built in regulator I was thinking iac valve or something I’m not messing with it though just upgrading
