Im curious about your wiring adapter between the distributor and the Sniper. I understood that you coudnt use the stock distributor as is. I am aware (and have ordered the parts) that you can use the small cap dizzy as a magnetic pickup dizzy, but the module is eliminated. https://www.onallcylinders.com/2017/01/20/ask-away-jeff-smith-rotor-phasing-relates-efi/
I have tried to get an answer from Holley, but thats like finding chicken teeth. If you could expand on that, I would appreciate it.
Yeah, the harness I got doesn't look as plug-and-play as I thought it'd be, so it's sitting for now. As soon as the weather got cold my progress on the truck dried up. We're not projected to have temperatures above 50* in the next couple weeks, and when it is above 50*, I'm still cleaning up the yard from two ice storms. I kinda wish I still had an outdoors job so I'd be acclimated, but the desk job pays better.
I drove the truck to the hardware store yesterday, and the TCC is locking up as it's supposed to, but the transmission flares if I give it more than half throttle. As soon as the credit card cools down from Christmas I'm going to order parts to rebuild the original 700R4.
After giving advice on another thread I checked my IAC value on the Sniper, and when warm it's at 0% instead of 5-7%, so that may be why I'm having a stumbling problem just off idle. I'm not sure what changed, but I'll readjust that.
If I get out in the shop today, I'll be welding a scattershield on my dad's black walnut ******* I built. I gave it to him for Christmas and he tried it out, and now I've made a few tweaks to it.
I'd set the IAC a while back, but there's been a lot of changes and fixes to other things since then, so yeah, it's time to redo it. As far as the fine tuning goes, Abel Racing is just down the road from me, but I want to rebuild the transmission first.
Also on the to do list:
Re-fix the driver's side door detent
Replace the windshield and mount the mirror
Replace the passenger side door handle
Clean both door locks so I can use them
Replace the rub strips on the windows
Tighten the driver's visor so it quits dropping down when driving
The tires are old and not trustworthy, but I'm not going to bother replacing them until I start putting miles on the truck. If nothing else, I have a set of good tires going bad on the Cadillac that I could swap on. Same 5x5 bolt pattern.
I found a set of five-spoke Jeep wheels for $80, but when I drove an hour to buy them, the buyer flaked.
