Per the title, here is my 1971 El Camino powered by a 454 I scavenged out of a junkyard C30. I also stole the same truck’s turbo 400 and 12-bolt rear end. Last year, I wanted to try my luck with fuel injection, so I did just that, installing the entire Holley Sniper 2 ecosystem on it—from fuel tanks and lines to the distributor and ignition box. I love Sniper 2; it never gives me issues that aren’t self-inflicted or where the root cause isn’t something else. Roast me, ask me a question; I just love my rig and think it’s unique. I always drive it and treat it like the workhorse Chevy made it to be.
Sweet. My first car from 1984-1994 was a light blue El Camino. Mild 350/350 and she was stout. 454 should be a ton of fun!
Nice car!!! I swear any project car in the future I am putting on the Sniper 2. I had a 75 C10 I could never get it tuned ever. That Sniper 2, I swear I gained 30 hp lol on that truck!!
