    Holley Street Demon 1901

    Sounds true to the Holley philosophy of being a "barely controlled fuel leak" My real fun toy is the Charger though it too is restricted by my brief to remain a cruiser but with a as much extra power I can muster within those parameters. The engine started life as a 440 magnum with 480ft/lbs torque, but has had a full rebuild starting with an acid bath and then new everything including lots of aluminum and is now small block weight. It has a revised timing street Hemi purple shaft with 485 lift and runs a 3.55:1 8 3/4" diff with a planned 4.36 to take advantage of the Gear Vendor for a final drive of 3.35. Currently running a Holley 780 vac secondary much to my disgust because I couldn't find anyone familiar enough with the Edelbrock I had. Bring on the Sniper! It has TTI extractors and a twin 2.5" X pipe system and registered 260kw or 350bhp at 5000rpm (the dyno sook stopped at 5000). It ran 14.06 at Heathcote in 37 degrees percolating fuel and bogging down. I've since fitted Edelbrock RPM performer heads which made a monumental change. It now breathes easy and revs like a small block. we think it should do between 13.5 and 13.2. This is why the Plymouth isn't going to a very get a hard time.

    Holley Street Demon 1901

    Thank you Gerg. My main concern was to make sure I'd selected the right size carb. Sounds like the Demon should meet my needs apart from that accelerator pump issue. The carb fits on the spread bore Wiand twin plane without fouling the secondary butterfly and it looks like it fit under the bonnet but it'll be tight. My cam has .454 lift and 110 LSA (Comp cam 268H) It will run a DUI dizzy so the combo is a bit milder than yours. It won't see much hard driving other than the occasional "squirt". The car only weighs 1335kgs even with the V8, so the combo should work well. 318s were almost strangled with the 2 barrel carb and respond well to being able to breathe. So thanks again this info is invaluable.

    Holley Street Demon 1901

    Hi, I new here and have just been reading this thread. No doubt you'll notice from my screen name that I'm a Mopar enthusiast but rest assured I've had plenty of Fords including a '94 Lincoln Towncar and currently own a G6 FG plus a 2010 Lt Caprice so I've got foot in all 3 camps. I've just bought a Street Demon 1901 and will be buying a calibration kit soon. It will be going on a mild 318 with 10 to 1 forged pistons, 360 V8 J casting heads with 1.88 intakes a mild cam a bit up from a factory 340 manual. It has a Wiand twin plane and TTI extractors and all shoehorned into a 2 door hardtop 65 Plymouth Signet (basically an AP6). I'm wondering if your 302 has something similar in the way of mods in the hope that your info would broadly apply to my small block application. This is a long term project I've just bought last month and is not expected to finished for 1 to 2 years. My other car is a 440 1969 Dodge Charger R/T clone that's just about to get a Holley Sniper once the new tank arrives.
