Got the new Super Sniper throttle body setup for my Coronet and have starting to install it. In theory they just bolt on with a few connections but this one isn't going on so easily. One wiring harness was missing out of the package and the secondary linkage is missing off of the throttle body. Holley must be making these things so fast that they are forgetting to put all the parts in the box.

The Sniper is wider than a carb so the throttle cable doesn't line up. That could be a problem with a lot of existing throttle brackets. I'm just going to make a new set of brackets that are offset an inch and see how that works.

It looks like your bracket is 2 pieces, maybe unbolt and turn it to the out side?

My standard sniper that I put on my 73 F100 still doesn't have the trans kickdown/servo lever hooked up.

I need to make a bracket for it.

The install was definitely MORE than a 4 wire hookup. LOL

Fuel system was the biggest pita but also had to do an air cleaner mod.

Looks like that would work!

The front fuel inlets on the Sniper body are mounted really high so the fittings will run into the air cleaner base. The instructions don't mention it, but Holley sells a special Sniper air filter base. Not sure why the instructions don't point it out, seems like it could help guys out with a problem.

I bought one of the Sniper air cleaner bases but I don't think I'll use it. I decided to use the fuel fittings on the back of the throttle body rather than the front ones. The Sniper base if kind of flat while my old K&N base seemed to have a better shape to it for air flow. I haven't tested either one but the K&N just looks better so I'm going to use it.

Watching with extreme enthusiasm Andy. I'm about to install the same setup on my Charger along with the Holley Dual Sync I purchased from you. I knew about the air cleaner for the throttle body. Lot's more info on the Holley forums and sites. I do read about quite a few IAC issues on the Holley Sniper forums on FB as well. I've installed a FiTech, an Edelbrock on customers cars, however never a Holley so my car will be the ginny pig.

The dual sync distributor should work well with the Sniper. I'm waiting for the new Hyperspark ignition stuff from Holley to start showing up. The Hyperspark is all designed to plug and play with the Sniper so it will be a clean install. The dual sync is a pretty clean install though and it is Hall effect so that is better than trying to use a MSD distributor.

Sounds great Andy. Looking forward to seeing how you address the throttle linkage.

I had to cut off my throttle arm and reverse
it and weld it back on to get my cable to line
up correctly.. was about 1 1/4" off.. ths was
on my HP throttle body.. minor issue when you
build the whole car

Hey Andy, who makes the black water neck/sensor piece?

I made that. I made a few extras, haven't decided to put them on the website or not.

Damn that's sweet. PM me about a price Andy.

Thanks. You can get water neck spacers from Summit but sometimes the quality isn't super high. I've tried a few different brands in the past and sometimes they don't work with a thermostat or else there isn't enough wall thickness for the sensor threads.

I will take one. I like it. Very clean. I can run my EFI temp off it like you did. Then run my Mercedes fan controller off the other. Very trick Andy.

I kinda figured that, and it looked like something you'd do. Pm me a price if they're not all spoken for already.

For what it's worth I've got the same throttle bracket and the 4 injector model lines up just a hair off center.

I'm a buyer Andy if you decide to make any.

Referencing of course the thermostat adapter.

For that little bit I would just bend the linkage bracket
a bit to line it up... just up from the intake
