Holley AFPR

Does anyone have the Holley AFPR? I'm undecided between 3 brands (Holley, Crane, Accel) but Holley is looking to be the one that I want. Can anyone offer an opinion on this?

Thanks...

I have never heard of anyone have a problem with the Holley. Its a little bit more expesive than the others, but I have heard its worth the extra cost. I have a Crane right now and I dont like it. Its just to hard to adjust.

I just got one over Christmas. I haven't put it in yet though. It has a big dial on top instead of a little bolt so it should be easy to adjust. It comes with a new spring and diaphram too.

I've been running a Holley AFPR all 2001 season and have no complaints. Over 11 visits to the dragstrip averaging ~6 runs each time, 2 days at Pocono Raceway for road course racing, 1 day at Nazareth Speedway, 1 day at Lime Rock, 2 days at Memphis Motorsports Park. The car was driven to all these, no trailering. If it was prone to failure, it would have happened. The pressure setting stayed rock-steady at 48psi.

I like the serrated "hat" that adjusts bare-handed with no tools, I like the double-spring and 2-layer diaphragm.

I don't like that it didn't include a safety-torx bit to remove/install the thing, had to go to Pep Boys and spend another $9 buying a whole set.

The Holley is a great piece. Very easy to adjust, no tools, just reach under the plenum and adj. with 2 fingers. Had the TPIS unit before, its a POS.
The packaging of the Holley could be better, shipped with all the inside parts loose and the diaphram was folded because of it, luckily no damage though.
