dont worry...its not another annoying question...i hope...the reason i posted is because when i went to my local speed shop for prices the guy called holley and they apparently told him that there hadnt been any manufactured yet or something to that effect. i told him that i knew people that already had them and that id find out where they got them. this matters because hes part of sema and if holley is giving them to some shops and not others then its a big prob or something like that, but its important so i appriciate your help. if you would just reply with where you got it and the part numbers or anything else relevent, thanks.

 

I went to the local speed shop on a Tuesday in Evansville, Indiana. It's not a very large shop and has almost nothing in stock for EFI. I told the guy I wanted Holley part number 7540 and 534-185. He called his supplier who said one of those was an old part number for a BBC intake. I told him those were the correct part numbers and showed him a picture in his Holley catalog but that part number was for a complete kit including ECM, wiring, etc. On Wednesday afternoon I stopped in and he said he was waiting for a call back. He called again, (I don't know who is supplier is) and the guy said there was ONE on the shelf at Holley and the fuel rail kit was is stock too. He said it would be $330.00 for the intake and $170.00 for the fuel rail kit. I knew it was higher than Summit but I like ordering from local shops when I can. On Friday I called and he said it was there. On Sunday it was installed.

 

 

How's that bad boy run???

 

SMasterson---what intake did you have before the stealth ram? how do you like it? what kind of performance did you see out of it. I thinking about putting it on my next combo but im not sure yet. thanks for the help

Talk to us man,how does it feel?

 

also what kind of heads are you running on that?

 

thank you smasterson, very helpful.

 

Smaster, man i'm envious. I've got the manifold installed on my car but I'm still waiting on the fuel rails. I've been in contact with fonse performance and Doug F at holley, and it looks like I'll have mine for sure to install when I go home next weekend.

Any comments on the setup?

 

388, Your from Chico or San Diego Primarily ?

Let me guess? You bought it from a guy named John on Franklin street?

 

Yeah, John does pretty good if you know what you want when you go there. His inventory has increased considerably lately too!

To the other questions, it's coming along pretty good. Tuning has been a pain since it rains all the time. I was WAY lean at higher RPM's after the Stealth Ram install. Getting all lined out now. As far as which heads, etc.

Yeah I've know John and his brother for about 12 years now, bopth real good people. So what hood do you have right now and how was the fit? Looked like a Bird from the pics I saw, probably 85-87 model. Maybe I could get a look under the hood on the weekend since we live so close. I go to Franklin Cycle on nice Sat's once or twice a month.
