In this exhilarating episode from Saabkyle04, the team delves into the final stages of the fuel injection conversion on a classic 1956 Ford Thunderbird. Armed with Holly's cutting-edge Sniper 2 EFI system, they navigate through challenges like tank depth issues and clearance constraints, ultimately opting for an external fuel pump kit for a seamless installation. The attention to detail is impeccable as they meticulously wire up the system, incorporating innovative features like the power distribution module and a sleek 5-inch touch handheld display.

With the fuel system expertly plumbed and the wiring complexities conquered, the focus shifts to setting up the new optional features.

The meticulous attention to detail and commitment to a flawless setup is evident throughout the process.

As the setup wizard is completed and the engine roars to life, the Thunderbird showcases improved throttle response and self-learning capabilities, a testament to the advanced technology at play.
