I just put a Sniper EFI on my 427 BBC 67 Chevelle ET car. After install my first start consisted of reaching through the window and turning the key only. That's never happened with a cold start before and not always with a warm engine either. I'm not expecting a quicker ET. I'm hoping for more consistency.
Haha! Couldn't agree with you more Darrel. Must be starting to like that Holley system. I know after a year of playing with mine on my turbo street car. My stocker that's being converted back to a street car is now getting a CNP conversion with a Holley HP and if I could afford to scrap my super stock engine combination I'd be building something using EFI as well. I'd much rather play around tuning on the laptop then pulling carbs apart and changing things.
