Hello,
I'm doing preliminary research for switching over my car from Holley dp 750 to Holley Sniper. I will probably buy a later FI gas tank to put in my car since I'm assuming my carb gas tank won't work for in-tank fuel pump. Will my same fuel gauge sending unit work (connection at tank)?

Is there anyone that has done a write up on how they changed from carb to Holley sniper in particular? I've searched the forums and seems to be miscellaneous tech in different areas.

TIA,
Craig

 

You can install any fuel injected sending unit into your early tank,... no problem; It's a plug and play install with no modifications.

Later fuel tanks are preferable to the early tanks because they have internal baffles inside them to help control fuel "slosh" when cornering. I'm not exactly sure what years had the baffles - but I'm GUESSING they started using them somewhere around 90-91.

P.S. The carb version of the fuel sending unit is getting very hard to find these days and it's worth keeping it intact for re-sale if possible.

 

If your car was a original L69-HO engine u should already have a
in tank pump as well as a pump on the block also.

 

Mine is a L69 car, but L69 cars were carbureted, not fuel injected. I had a engine mounted fuel pump.

 

thanks for reply. Guess I didn't realize there is also a carb sending unit.
