Picked up the Holley hp last week. Got it installed and figured out the wiring to the coils. Was easier than I thought, ended up pulling the pinout on the connector and installing the pins on the holley accordingly. Have a few things to fix and work on the idle.

A little update. I was having heating problems with the car, ended up putting a meiziere electric water pump on and a flex a lite 16in 3000cfm fan and kept the temps down. Not sure if i'll be keeping the intercooler over the winter since these cars a tight for room in the front end.
Also was having trouble with surging/idle, contacted Dennis at Mooreracecraft in the evening and within a half hour later had a file to try. Loaded the file and idles at 950. Would recommend anyone who's looking for a Holley system to go through him!

I believe it's the wp119 I used world products 1in npt to -16 as they are tighter to the waterpump. The fittings are mm away from the fan. Camera **** the bed, i'll post some pics as soon as I get a camera.

So on the Holley hp system you have to wire the coil packs in yourself? I'm interested in that system for my turbo fairmont how do you like it? Is it easy to use and get running? Nice build! love them nova's

I haven't done an update on this for awhile. Since last time I've updated it I took the 408 out and sold the heads. It was too much compression for the motor. Since than I've been running a 5.3 with a mild cam, springs, studs and ls9 gaskets. I've probably made over 60 passes with it running under 10lbs. I stripped the car down to bare metal and did the body work on it, it's now painted a solid color. I still have the same turbo's on the 5.3. It's pretty lazy for the first 100ft barely spinning the tires and moves pretty good the rest of way. I'm taking it to the track this Saturday for the first time with this car. I'll try get some progress pics up this weekend.
