Awesome video can't wait to see how it runs very cool to see the kids working on the car future hot rodders hell yeah 👍

[@JD_JoyrideTV]

They love helping and get super excited when I ask them for help.

[@daveknasinski1792]

Glad to see the Camaro getting some love! Can't wait to see the dyno runs!

[@kennethalbert4653]

19:30 NUTSERTS ! You can find kits very reasonable prices. They're like rivets but it inserts a threaded "tube"....one man job !

[@warrenballard8729]

What a awesome detailed video on installing the new fuel system... but gotta say JD "Mate what a tease you are for cutting this short " You better not leave us hanging here

[@JD_JoyrideTV]

I promise there’s more this video was very long.

[@mag1vl]

Hello guys from Australia 🙃 I liked this video it was very interesting and Holley do make nice stuff for sure. But what a way to end a video (will it start) 😩 ha ha I'm waiting for the next one already 😁

[@mdmiller3841]

That was a fun one you tease!

[@betomendez4304]

You guys were cracking me up lol can't wait for next vid car is sweet

[@clodbusted1776]

I'm doing the same thing to my old ford truck now. Efi is so simple these days it's awesome

[@TroutButter]

I like these longer videos like this.

[@JD_JoyrideTV]

It was over 50min but had to trim it and make it a 2 part.

[@Lethal_Venom]

EFI FTW! Far better than a carb set up

[@tonymohr1304]

Awesome Love that car bro 🏁👀🇺🇸

[@oldandboosted]

The sniper x Flow 1375 is hands down the best thing we ever did to our small block turbo Mopar. The second best thing is convert it to E85. The third best is buying a professional tune.

[@ronniekidd2753]

Converted a 68 Torino GT with a MSD kit last year, night and day difference. Especially on cars that don't get driven often.

[@JD_JoyrideTV]

It’s unbelievable on the difference and no one in my opinion could ever fine tune a carb as well as a efi

[@d.l.b3452]

Exiting stuff 🇬🇧🥇🧐❤️

[@kayrams1792]

Reminder: The fuel pump pre filter must touch the bottom of the tank to avoid fuel supply starvation when the fuel is at low level.

[@trax3d]

Please keep us up to date on how this works for you. I tried the Sniper on a 302 and a brand new 347 crate engine. Both didn't "take". Had it professionally installed on both. Went back to 650 Carb on the 347. Really wanted it to work. I hope it does for you! Awesome vid!!

[@JD_JoyrideTV]

Wonder what went wrong? Seems good so far

[@trax3d]

@@JD_JoyrideTV Not really sure to this day. They did like a month long trouble shoot. My car acted like it was vapor locking constantly. They told me that it just sometimes happens. Glad it is working for you!!

[@keithking5414]

Good video

[@armygreenfj3924]

I read mixed reviews about the EFI system . One of the reasons why i stepped away from it on my rebuilt chevy 350 for my K5 blazer. Also if you breakdown somewhere with a EFI problem you cant just fix it right away. Unless you carry extra parts like a 02 sensor and a back up EFI system…Im currently running the edelbrock avs2 and has been very reliable and starts every time and easy to tune. Maybe one day ill try out the EFI system..But if i would to choose i would go with the older version MSD atmoic EFI..i like the fact you can mount the electric module inside the cab away from heat..Thats one of the downsides of the new EFI and a common problem for the computer module to go out because of the excessive heat under the hood..

[@armygreenfj3924]

Nice car by the way !!!

[@kennethalbert4653]

26:40 I think you'll need to keep that cell >1/4 full at all times !

[@Horsepower_Stables]

Looks great. Fuel pressure regulator mounted on the firewall is not track legal so if you ever did want to run it they probably would fail you at tech in, but if you’re not ever going to race it who cares! lol

[@RealRemixYT]

I can’t wait too see this build completed but I am also a huge fan of fast and furious so I have to ask when you gonna start that car

[@JD_JoyrideTV]

Still have to figure out what’s wrong with it. Might be the head gasket.

[@Lonelypickupman97]

Probably easier if you put boot on wire first then put connector on

[@johnmilner7603]

14:41 LMAO, STOP, playing with the screwdriver and oil pump slot. 😂. Set the dizzy rotor where you want it and turn the engine by hand and the dizzy will drop into its final position with the rotor turning. The 1st engagement is meshing with the cam.

[@roberta4989]

JD great update to the ride. I gotta admit I do not agree that the regulator should be on the return line. The regulator is so there is not excessive fuel pressure to the carb/fuel injection from the fuel pump. You need to control that pressure. How much return pressure really doesn't matter. The carb/fuel injection is gonna return what it needs to return. Just putt'n it out there!

[@highclasslinetrash5452]

fi is different look at any new fi vehicle it is regulated after the injectors but either way its still set at 60psi either b4 or after the the carb/throttle body but with fi you don't want any restriction b4 the throttle body bc it uses high fuel pressure where a carb uses 6-10 psi any higher it will push thru the needle and seat flooding the car hope that helps

[@michaellipe4889]

I’ve thought about putting it on my 69 mustang

[@JD_JoyrideTV]

Definitely recommend it

[@williammccabe3767]

Watching this video, I’m wondering at what point you’re going to discover the sniper has a built-in fuel pressure regulator

[@jessegoldston70]

Do you have to buy all that stuff or can you just by the efi system, looking to put one on a 77 F-250 460 motor?

[@JD_JoyrideTV]

Trust me it’s worth it. If you contact Holley they can put together a kit catered to your set on your 77.

[@brendanmccarthy492]

Not to be a dick. But there’s a reason why there was a brass gear on that old distributor. They go by the material used. Aka a billet steel camshaft would use a composite or a brass distributor gear. Trust me I learned the hard way by ruining a camshaft using a harder metal of the distributor gear. I doubt you guys have the info of the engine being built but a cam sheet that came when the owner bought the camshaft should be with it. With other important info.

[@brentonmcclean3647]

You're very much correct bud

[@brendanmccarthy492]

@@brentonmcclean3647 I fucked my motor up doing that. Just for safe purposes just throw a brass one or a composite one on that distributor. That will work with pretty much any camshaft. Just remember that their a soft material. They don’t last long. Especially if you drag race it or have a high volume/pressure oil pump.
