Re: SBC Holley sniper sheet metal intake
You are the first person I have heard of that has one of those things. Is it the single carb or dual carb intake as I have seen images of both. I would love to get my hands on one to play with on the dyno to prove/disprove that it works or not. The general layout has me scratching my head.

Re: SBC Holley sniper sheet metal intake
Are we talking mix differences on the dyno, or on the track?
The single Carb version may have too much Plenum volume?

You can cut a man's tongue from his mouth, but that does not mean he’s a liar, it just shows that you fear the truth he might speak about you!

Re: SBC Holley sniper sheet metal intake
Is it breathing thru a scoop at the track?

Re: SBC Holley sniper sheet metal intake
Lots of duration, low compression, low stall and a 2 speed make a weak combo. The nitrous (gobs of torque on the launch) show the potential of the combo. A manifold change will help if it builds torque around your stall point.
The truck will never be quick on motor without converter and gearing changes, at which point you won't have the RPM available for the spray.
BTW, nice runs going 9's
