Now that's really nice. The truck has been reborn thanks to you, Steve. This was a great upgrade.
Thank you for making the videos for us. Best from Norway.
GREAT video! You make it seem effortless, the work AND the videomaking. Such a good view that I feel like I'm right there looking over your shoulder (but slightly less creepy). The system sounds WONDERFUL! Those old Chevys are near and dear to my heart. Seeing this one made mint and better brings me joy. Thanks Steve!!
Well said !
Congrates Steve for joining Holley Throttle Body Club. Welcome to the 21th centry. 😍👍She'll go far across the country saving you lots of $$$$$.
Congratulations. Really nice instal. I'm sure it looked a bit overwhelming at first. Like you say take your time, double check and go for it and before you know it the loose wires become less. Sounds great, looks just as good. Something anyone would be proud to own. You are a man with a lot of talent and are not afraid to go outside of your comfort zone. Thanks for taking us along with along on your Holley adventure. See you next Saturday.
Thanks👍.
I love how enthusiastic owners can make a car very much better then it ever was before and that is while keeping things 'normal'. Great job Steve. You'll drive this car a lot i think.
Greetings from Belgium.
From setting CMU block to EFI, you are an amazing tradesman!
Well done. I suppose the Holly with replaced Weber metering plate is a thing of the past. This is a far better result than hundreds of initial fire ups I have seen over the years, And certainly the best I have seen with anything Holley on it.
Good morning all from the UK
Morning
Love a morning with Steve. Here in Staffordshire
Arr Boi, mornin from Cornwall.
😎👍🍻
Ey up me duck!
Hi from Leicester.
F-Off from Bridgeport,CT 🇺🇸
Just kidding 🤣
✌️💖&💡
Nicely done sir! One point of clarification, there are two types of Tesa tape. The fuzzy one is for inside use, the non-fuzzy one is for underhood use.
Gotta love it when a plan comes together. Well done my friend. Thanks for bringing us along on this journey.
Happy Saturday Steve, Cora, and Grits! Great Job on the Hilley System. Once into Fuel Injection, you will never go back. Your perception on clean power and good grounds is right on! We had so many issues with this when Detroit Diesel first converted units in the field. Must be clean power. Wished you would have put ypur foot in it on camera. I know you did for real. Awesome Thanks for sharing.
Good morning Steve from Wales in the UK.
I was hoping to be 1st to check in to see what's new in your shop this week, but I was beaten to it by Paul from the UK.

Nice job, Steve. It looks and sounds amazing!
Thank you for sharing. Very nice installation with great results, thanks for taking us along.👍
Always enjoy your videos. They are well thought out and easy to understand.
Steve, when I have to mount a flat unit on uneven walls like that, I cut a piece of 1/4 copper tubing to fill the gap behind the unit which stanchions it off and I run the screw through my unit, through the copper tubing, and into the wall securing without vibration.
Hello Steve, from Scotland.
Great build. I'm thinking the ignition switch is not allowing 12v through to the ignition system while in the cranking position.
As a test; try just touching the starter and let go the key. I reckon it'll start right up without the 2-3 cranks first.
Great stuff! Thanks for letting us follow along, Steve.
That motor you built sounds strong..great to hear it fire and run great rite away
Keep up the good work Steve. God bless you and the family.
Very nice addition ! Pretty slick. Honestly looks like a fun install !
Steve, I can't remember what engine block you used but classic SBC has a bolt boss that intersects the bore of the fuel pump push rod, which you deleted. Sometimes that can leak some oil and a short 3/8-16 bolt will work as a 'plug'.
Truck looks and sounds great. Would be interested to see more footage on tuning and fiddling with the fuel map with the laptop when you get there. Thanks.
It was plugged👍. I just didn't show it.
Outstanding job! That grin on your face was priceless.
Oh my lord, she sounds nice with a little revs!
Great result Steve, a thoughtful and intelligent wiring job mate, even if you really don't like wiring lol The initial timing was absolutely spot on, I've never heard a cold engine's throttle response so crisp even from the very first blip of the throttle. You showed us you were checking the timing with the light and I reckon you didn't have to adjust it at all by the sound of it because it was so crisp on start up. So all in all an extremely good kit from Holley I'm truly impressed with it. Once you have those little lean spots sorted and I expect that will sort itself out once the ecu learns the engine, as you said. Enjoy it mate it's the end of a magnificent rebuild of your old square body Chevy and you deserve to enjoy it as you have entertained us with it for the best part of a year and four or five months. Cheers from the UK
Truly an amazing build, right from the start.
Steve and all the people who gave him parts off his wish list
@@takedeadaim8671 He is just a very nice, hard working fella that cares for us all.
@@TomokosEnterprize I agree he seems to be a nice guy, he works hard as a lot of us do. I'd have an easier time trying to make a living if I had people sending me tools and supplies instead of having to pay for everything I need plus pay the bills for the 5 operations I will have in the next 9 months. Nothing against Steve I am just amazed at the concept of people sending creators thousands in tools and supplies while their neighbors struggle to feed their kids.
@@takedeadaim8671 I am pretty sure if any of his neighbors need a hand he will be there for sure.
Excellent job Steve! More importantly you will help many with their installation and choices. Nice to see you were able to use the MSD crimper I sent you.
Sounds great buddy, it even sounds to have better throttle response
Great stuff Steve, well done and thanks for the video!
That truck sound amazing with that Holley efi wow
Good stuff, Steve. Thanks.
Thanks for showing this...i'm considering putting one of their systems on my small block square as well. Nice to see a good thought out install vid
It's a very nice upgrade IMO. From my research, they are very reliable when installed with care and wired carefully. This has been on my list since I began the build on this truck.
The bark from that exhaust when you blipped it sounds truly sweet! Good afternoon from a cloudy cambridgeshire in the UK!
another great video Steve thank you
Nice job Steve Great approach to the installation
That sounds like a beast. Good job.
What a great truck you built, Steve. Hats Off!!...🍁
Nice job on the installation!
Those of us who said to swap in an LS when you asked for engine suggestions are scratching our heads right now.
There are two ways to knock down RFI, you can put a gentle twist in the wires and avoid sensitive areas. Option two is to get shielded wiring sleeve to pull over the wiring . Another thing I learned wiring race cars with lots of sensors and electronics that need clean power, often off a compact battery, is to add a quality terminal strip or two (one POS, one Gnd) wired too and mounted in an available spot where you can easily connect all your power wires to a known clean 12-16V and a known good ground. They are also available with built in fuse holders.
The old truck is looking and sounding good
Few of us know of these bars. In my world everything I own has them.
Outstanding video series.
Nice job!
That was a great "what if" tutorial Steve. Excellent job. Engine sounds great!
Hey buddy👍.
Ahhh, SATURDAY. If there is something in this world I love to do is everything this channel has to offer. What a great post Steve! Everything you have done on this build has been done right. The end result is the proof of that statement. It sounds great. Does everything you ask of it every time. I saw at original startup it was running a tad rich. I am sure that is intentional from Holley as it is a system that learns through the exhaust sensors it will most likely correct that on its own. Better too rich than that piston and valve eating lean situation. As well you have the ability to tune through your laptop. Great system my friend. Ohh that sound, LOL. Back to machining, WOOHOO, I'll be here, guaranteed ! Thanks a bunch fella !
The ñoidest sound in the engine compartment is the engine sucking in air. Awesome Steve.
Man does that sound good 👍
What helps me focus at work is putting the news channel on and listening to it through headphones. Just helps me ignore everyone running around and having their own conversations. I can get away with it because I work at a TV network and there are TVs all over the place, so nobody bats an eye if I've got VLC playing the news channel on my second screen, even if it's technically the competition.
Thats a monster job well done!
Congratulations, stay safe.
Good job!
Afternoon Steve 😅 I hope the winds not to bad where you're at.
I would have put the relay next to the fuel pump. Generally, you should keep your high current wires as short as possible this is because the small voltage drop between the ECU and the relay is more desirable than the higher voltage drop you'll get if you locate the relay away from the high current device (fuel pump). You can usually get away with having the relay located away from the fuel pump if you increase the cross-sectional area of the cable.
You are an amazing Builder.
Best Truck ever..
You will be enjoying it for Years.
Keep er clean... 😃
There’s one happy guy! Nice work Steve. Welcome to the world of EFI on old Detroit iron. It’s nice for the HEI equipped GM vehicles have a constant 12V source. My 68 Camaro does not. Those old cars had a resistor wire from the ignition switch (run) and a 12v wire from the starter solenoid to the + coil terminal. Other than having to flip a switch prior to starting, it’s hit the key and go. Congrats on the latest mod. You’re going to enjoy it.
Really enjoyed this one Steve, how satisfied you must feel after getting this done!!!!!
Thanks, Lance. I liked the truck before, but it is even better now. Starts like a modern vehicle and runs great out of the box. Thanks for stopping by
WOW!! The interior looks better than factory.
Sounds a beast
Good stuff
Great video Steve, I will be doing all the same steps when installing the Holley Sniper EFI on the Nova!
That Nova is going to be a rocket bud. This truck runs better with just the factory set tune than it ever did with the carb . You are going to have a lot of fun.
Nicely done! Such a happy result right until your son asks daddy can I borrow the truck!😁
Good job Steve. There are very few things, if any, that you are afraid to tackle. That is inspiring for sure.
He tests the water slowly. Great self preservation within this fella eh.
I get my dyno hooked up you can give it a test or take a deep dive into tuning if you want.😎
Curious to see the before and after MPG difference is.
It's wonderful to see how much you've grown Steve. Your presentation skills have improved so much (I think you've lost the clapping ;) ) and you're doing really well! Such a difference between the beginning... I remember you were still at around 800 subscribers when I started watching, incredible to see the progress!
Thanks bud👍
Hi Steve. That was a sweet truck before and now it is even sweeter, with upgraded fuel and ignition systems. Much better overall styling on the square bodies, too (in my opinion) than the new ones. Can't get over how much that throttle body looks like a regular double pumper. Nice, old school look, under the hood! Thanks for the video!
Yep, looks at home under the hood of this old truck. I didn't want to loose that old carbureted look.
@8:48 "When done right, no one even notices it but they DO notice it if you do it wrong." Oh my! How many things in life (not just wiring, painting, machining, ......) does this apply to.
I just remembered a pretty cool fastener that would work for attaching stuff the the firewall. Wellnuts.
Nice!
I'd like to do this to my '66 someday. Nice job.
Good morning from Dorset, UK.
I like all your video ' s , not long ago I had check engine problem , it cost me , a damaged wire du to engine heat or rubbing against something sharp ...
I installed an efi kit on a scooter I had it was fun and it started and ran so much better than with the carb setup had to change the charging system so it could keep the battery charged up
Good afternoon Steve from Thailand.
Steve, I bet you have the most perfect and most advanced pickup of this model in the whole USA. I think you did a better, more nice looking job on the installation than the factory would have done. The only thing that I see wrong with the installation is that I did not see Elizabeth helping you on it. I am shore that she could made a few improvement suggestions to you that would have helped. Good job Steve!
nice add for the truck
Steve, are you sure your ecu got ignition +12v when cranking the starter?
Noticed it fired right up when you let go of the ignition key, that's typical for issues with power to ecu/ignition while cranking.
Ps. Love the setup. 😊
Yeah, it's getting a full 12v cranking. It will start if you hold the key on crank longer. I just let off quick.👍
If not built into the computer driver or the fuel pump relay, you need a back biased diode across the relay coil to snub the spike when relay coil is deenergized.
Great video
☹🇬🇧
Good job, it looks like a really cool upgrade to a really cool old truck. But..... I'm going out on a limb here and going to use a Joliet Jake Blues quote, "fix the cigarette lighter".
My word steve that truck is to die for, from the colour/interior to the looks and sound (very jelious) just wish thay were avilable across the pond in the uk (wouldnt like to think what running costs would be here) still another great video love all your content especially this one, Great job.
There are lots of buyers from there that come to Canada (here) and buy truckloads of these to tinker and sell over there. You just have to look around some.
@@TomokosEnterprize I have to say I've been driving in the UK for 51 years and I've never seen a Chevy square body truck on the road over here.
@@samrodian919 The buyer I met is from the Netherlands. One thing about them is your roads are pretty too narrow to comfortably drive there. I have sold 2 narrower 1949 Williys pick up's to a Brit buyer some 3 or 4 years ago. No matter what the condition he paid well over $10K Canadian for them. Both were in fairly solid body condition. Both ran as well.
@@TomokosEnterprize well I run a Range Rover L322 4.2 Supercharged, and that's a pretty wide vehicle for the UK certainly as wide as a Ford Transit van, and I don't have any problems on my local roads! Yes UK roads used to be pretty narrow, but big heavy euro trucks ( small by US / Canadian standards ) have literally forced the local authorities to make the lanes wider when they are resurfacing the roads. So it's not so bad these days lol
@@samrodian919 I have always wanted to visit all of Europe. Most of us here have ties to there. Norway, Brittan and Scotland for me. Canada has always been called a melting pot of races. of all kinds.
Awesome work. NOW, let’s get a headliner and visors installed to finish off the interior!
Hi Steve, Great install, all you need now is the Flux capacitor and you are good to go. lol
Hopefully this will give you better management of the fuel air!
My problem with my 2009 avalanche v8 is I live at 580 feet and going up a hill some times under cool humid conditions it marches over just fine other times it lugs out and finally race up the hill!
That tells me the system needs help!
I think, if i drive with that kit to the german TÜV, the engineer there get a heartattac. Greetings from germany.
When you see one tape or cover a carb or throttle body while working under the hood installing new parts, you know they are a top of the line mechanic. Been there, and and it's an oh-shit, when something goes in it 😞. Steve, you will have a $5K truck when your 100% done. Loved the whole build and all the time you and Elisabeth took time to film and share. Happy Trails, and it's a keeper for sure? Bear.
5K? If I could buy that truck for 5K I'd drive 48hrs straight to hand him the cash.
I think you missed a zero there, Bear. Lol I know what you meant though.
Great video 👍 Looking good and smart layout the Tessa tape you can reuse unwind it rewind doesn't get all gummy.How low can you get the idle ?😊
Gracias por activar los subtítulos 👍
Hi Steve. Just a note about the Tesa tape. „Tesa“ is a brand name, like „Scotch“, or 3-M. If you like the cloth insulated tape, great, but that’s the info that’s missing here. They make all kinds of tape. Over here, Tesafilm is what they call Scotch-tape in the US. Hi from Germany.
Truck is looking and sounding great. A credit to you. Could you credit the music from the episode please. Really like and would like to hear more.
its awesome what are the plans for the headliner area it looks like its not been done yet?
Awesome system, can't go wrong with an electronic fuel management system. I was wondering though, doesn't the Permatex #2 dissolve in gasoline?
Instead of running the additional oil pressure signal wire, would it have been feasible to move the unused MAP signal wire to the pin 20 spot?
not my favourite place to weld!! Well done, she sounds a bit fearsome now!
Phil, UK
Getting closer to those front wheel burnouts you talked about.😜
what are the numbers on the alternator belt and power steering belt
I installed one for a friend got 4 mpg better still had some issues.
Mopars distributor rotations are NOT all CCW.
When you set idle rpm to 770, I thought that was too high. You could probably get away w/650rpm.
Thanks for sharing. Sounds great. Soak your dog in tomato juice to get the skunk juice off. It may take a few times.
21:43 The FIRST thing that came to mind is that the Handheld Control Module (HCM) needs to submit a TPS report to Bill Lumbergh. Um, Yeah...👊😉💯
I don't know if you tested your gas mileage before you started adding the holley ECM but if you did it would be nice to know how much the gas mileage was effected
lol I was expecting you to fit a ecu eco chip tuning box
