I took a BIG leap today:

extra parts for the EFI conversion:

ordered a 9" air cleaner and I decided I didn't want it chromed AND the sniper to be polished, so I took it to a local guy and had it blasted and powder coated gloss black to set off the sniper a bit. the bottom ring is only powdered where it can be seen, as it won't fit on the mouth of the sniper if the powder is on there...too thick.

I think it will look ready good and contrast the polished stuff.

parts are pouring in.

More parts came in today.  Sniper 2 arrived, laid it all out, took some pics, and went ahead and used some thread sealant and put the pressure regulator together, and tried to take a pic of where it will be mounted.  Psi gauge still in the mail.  It will be "fun" making room for this HUGE sniper.  There is a "hole" there, just have to get a couple cuts just right so everything fits.  Took a few pics, first one is the "Master Kit" which is the fuel system, and it came with some NOS fittings.......then the entire deal and held it up on top of the intake and air cleaner....looks like I will be getting a thinner air filter to go in it, to clear the hood.
