First Start, Jeff Jones 200 2V conversion using a Holley Sniper 2300 and Hyperspark for cam break-in.
Thanks for sharing! Sorry the engine break-in and the Holley install didn’t go as anticipated. This is very helpful to many of us learning cars.
Cam break in went well. It didn't flatten, so thats good. Still sorting out the Sniper issues, but its getting there.
Good to hear her running again. Sorry to hear about the issues with the Holley. I have been seeing a lot of folks having issues with Holley recently. I am still waiting on mine.
it looks beautiful.
Great videos on the sniper 2300 and 1100! How was the performance difference between the 2300 with 2V conversion compared to your original sniper 1100? Which would you recommend to maximizes performance of the inline 6? Thanks!
2300 with a 2V head and a cam makes a huge difference.
Turn on the heater to open the heater control valve to push the air out from the heater core .
66 Mustang doesn’t have a control valve. It circulates through the core all the time.
Looking good! Is that a factory sized brake booster, or a smaller unit?
Im still waiting on my 1100 EFI unit too. Ordered it Feb 12th…. Backorders around 215 units or so Ive been told.
I enjoy watching your channel. Too bad about the glitch with the Holley system. Hopefully, it's an easy fix. You mentioned previously that Jeff Jones was writing an article on the 2V conversion. Do you know if the article is available?
Are you on the vintage 6 Facebook forum? Jeff posted it there.
@@mechtrician1 Which forum? I’d like to join in…

I love the chrome valve cover, what paint did you use?
It’s VHT Ford Blue.
I’m interested in the 200 cause my family member has one he said he’ll sell to me.. I wanna get 200-300 hp with a car that is daily drivable. Do you think that’s possible or should I just look for something else? It’s a 1982 mustang GL with an i6. A very very rare bird. You don’t see too many of those anymore. I would like to swap it to a 300 barra type engine, which seems very unlikely to fit… and I feel like just going to a 5.0 might be the better choice, with that said, if I could keep the original 200 in it and get some decent performance out of it, with upgrades to the bottom end and head, I might just want that. I just want a fun little car to zip around in, not a race car like everyone wants these day. I want it to pick up and go if I floor it though, not be a slug compared to modern traffic with its stock 83 hp… which route should I go and do you know what kind of power you’re making on your build?
200hp at the crank is hard to achieve with a 200 that’s NA. A good 2V conversion on an iron head with a cam will make about 180. I’m making 200 at the crank with an alloy VI head. You can turbo it and easily make 200-300hp though.
Hello, can someone tell me the model of that filter? Can it be adapted to all 6 cylinder engines? Or is it for a particular carburetor? thank you !
You need to build a little heat before you bring the idle up for break in
That is how you kill a flat tappet cam. Do not let it idle and warm up first. You have to immediately bring it up to 2500. Been doing it that way for 25 years without a problem.
“Perhaps the most important step in the break-in process is to bring the engine immediately up to a minimum of 2,500 rpm or more.”

Are you running a adapter to a 2bbl or did you machine the log to accept a 2bbl? That could be a lot of the issue with it not running right if its on a adapter
There were several updates that happened after this video. It’s machined and brazed to a 2 barrel. Ended up swapping to another head, this one had a defect. Jeff made me another head.
what gauge do you have on your oil pressure? that's connected to the block
Just an Amazon special. I think it's a 100 psi Marshall gauge.
Who did the head work? I have one to send out.
Jeff Jones at Vintage Engine Works in Fresno CA.
@mectrician1 what type of air cleaner is that?
Just a Ford HIPO filter for a 289 as I recall.
Any chance you can post you build specs? Thanks
Pretty minimal build. It’s the 2V that makes it.

This is exactly why I won't put any electronics in my 63 Falcon. Circuit board fries and you're SOL.
Well, it’s been rock solid for a year now. No issues and thousands of miles. I’ll take the drivability it affords. Once you get the bugs out it’s quite reliable.
small or large log head?
Large log. You pretty much can’t convert a small log to a true 2V, it doesn’t have enough material.
Any chance you can share the Sniper efi map that your buddy helped tune? Would love to take a look at it and see how it could apply to my 2v 200 in a falcon. Thanks!
It’s still very much a rough tune, and I just finished the exhaust so I’m changing it again. It’s not going to be much valve yet. I’m actually going to get it tuned.
@@mechtrician1 well once you figure out your tune I'd love to see your map. I have a 200 2v 2300 with a header and xpipe. Still working on my tune as well but things are off and I have some heat issues. Did you use the hyperspark set up? If so what did you buy for the whole efi system?
@@codywoods5631 yeah for sure. That’s basically my setup. I’m running a mild cam as well.
Yes I’m running a Hyperspark. I originally ran. Sniper 1100 and just upgraded to the 2300. Using the same hyperspark and fuel system. Just an in tank pump/regulator.
@@mechtrician1 do you have the hyperspark coil and Ignition box or just the dizzy?
@@codywoods5631 oh yes I do. Sorry forgot to mention that. CD box, coil and dizzy.
