This is the kind of video that shows amazing support for a product, as well as providing insight and wisdom. Ive seen the same videos mentioned and more, except for the rookie who gave up before trying to tweak the unit. Then made my decision, before this video sent it to the moon. Good stuff buddy.

I’ve spent hours on the phone with Holley tech on my sniper unit I had. Sent the TB back as they thought maybe the ecm was bad. Got it back put it on started going through with the initial set up just to have the injectors stuck open and filled my motor and intake up with gas. Ripped it all out and went carb. Now for the K5 build I have to have FI for the rock crawling I like to do and I’m doing everything in my power not to LS swap this so giving ACES a shot.

I fully agree my friend! I have gone through hell with my holley sniper setup and have received no help from holley. After many hours on the phone. The two worst things I’ve found is the sensors are garbage. Had to replace several, the IAC was defective out the box. Also the whole EMI/RFI interference issue. From the ecu living inside the main unit. I honestly expected more from Holley……..

I mentioned the whole separate ECU on a Holley page. They replied with, get a Terminator X. They don’t get it, and don’t care, they’re HOLLEY. All the little guys have them separate. Jegs, Summit, Aces. I shall see, but I think Aces is the best TBI product on the market.

For a while i was looking for a simplistic EFI setup for my ZZ4 crate engine running in a '79 malibu 2dr coupe and the throttle body type with the built in injectors and sensors in a minimized package seemed very attractive, especially for the price. But then i also noticed that the ECU was attached directly to the throttle body(others. not Aces), and i said no way, engine heat over time will kill it, think hot soak of a carburator that effects the gas in the fuel bowls. What also adds to the price, you will need a single plane intake manifold for the throttle body to work correctly, granted you could still a dual plane intake, but that will require needing to install a 1/2'' or so spacer between the throttle body and the intake for the open space needed. In short, i know i'll be spending at least twice as much as the ACES EFI, but i've decided to go with the Edelbrock Pro Flo4 sequential EFI system, its wireless, comes complete with everything you'll need, plus distributor and comes with its own tablet, and best of all, the ECU can be mounted remotely away from damaging engine heat. One more detail i must add, just makes me wonder what the longevity of the injectors/sensors that are incased inside the throttle body with prolonged under hood engine heat, even though its made from aluminum, just something to think about as well.

Friend of mine has that Edlebrock EFI. He said he hates it. He finally got it tuned right, and it works great, but he still hates it🤣 He said if he were to do it again he wouldn’t buy it. Those suckers are expensive too. But apparently when the tune gets worked out it works great

I'm thinking it's promotion upgrade for the handheld they do promotions regularly assuming to help get units out there. Also I bought the killshot top end kit as well, wiring it in easy but the wire management was a slight pain but honestly followed instructions and car did fire right up now I don't fully trust the self learn so I will get it tuned by a professional but currently I am able to drive around for reference it's on a 88 foxbody 302 turbo.
