I just installed the Sniper on a vortec 350 in my 85 k20. I'm using the Edelbrock remote sump system since I have dual tanks and wanted to keep the pump/wiring simple. That part works great. However, Do Not think the self-learning EFI systems (Holley/FI Tech or otherwise) are as plug and play as they say. If your lucky, it will fire and run ok. If you want it to run like factory tbi, there is a significant amount of tuning required. The tuning manual for Sniper is 45 pages. And, you will need the $50 dongle/can cable to connect it to a laptop. Viewing data logs and fuel tables on the 3.5 inch screen isn't possible. I was a little disappointed discovering this after paying a grand for it.
