Hi, has anyone here installed the Holley Sniper BBD on a 258? I am slowly talking myself into spending a cool G on this. Anyone have any opinions/experiences with this system?

It will be going on/in a 77 Hornet AMX, with a hopped up 258 and Modern Driveline T5.
Car currently has a MC2150. Runs well, but seems to fall flat at 3000 rpm.
I have read some of the Jeep sites, and the reviews seem favourable.
thanks, gz

I'm going to piggyback on your question, gz! Thanks for asking it.

btw, I already have the Holley Sniper in tank fuel pump module. It is designed for a stock Jeep fuel tank, BUT, I had an old rusty Eagle fuel tank around, (same as 77 Hornet), so I cut it open, (serious pucker factor:), and test fit the Sniper fuel pump module. and...drum roll:) It fits like it was made for it! May have to bend the float arm a bit, but that's it! Fuel outlet points in the wrong direction, but there is enough room under there that it should be ok.
This is the AMC1 fuel tank that is still widely available, used afaik, 77+, made in Canada.
thanks, gz

gz-

Did you end up installing the Holley Sniper setup? How did the fuel pump install go? I have inline electric pump mounted right now, but I doubt that would work with the Holley setup. I'd love to see pics if you've got them!
