Whipple Help
 
I Have A Side Mount Intercooled Whipple Kit (2.3)for A 500/525efi. The Kit It In Great Shape And Complete.but I Want To Run A Carb Setup.i Wanted To Know If Anyone Has Converted The Side Mount To A Carb App.i Allreadt Put An Ad In The Parts Swap Section To Trade It For A Carb Setup,but If Its Not To Expensive To Convert To Carb I May Do That.

Best to sell it and buy the correct setup. Too expensive to convert over. You should have no problem selling kit if it is complete and priced right. Also better give Whipple a call. They have alot of units on backorder and might not be able to sell you a kit right now.

Put your kit on Ebay and it will go fast.

Yep, It Fits The Straight Intake Motors(500 Efi/525efi)the Kit Has An Elbow So I Assume That With This Removed It Would Fit The Curved Intake Of The 454 Mag/efi Or 502 Mag Efi.

What Would Be Differnt On A 525 Efi?they Use The Same Intake/ecm As The 500 Efi. Don't They?

True .

The side mount kit [older design]is a Piggy back type computer system and it want clear the closed cooling system . .Also the 525 header has a larger swoop toward the front .I have always heard the side mount kits for the 500Efi's didn't work very well.

Yeah,i Forgot About Those Big Nasty Headers. It Ran A Little Rich At Idle,but Other Than That It Worked Well. 674 Hp @5400 (509ci/8.75 :1 /@6 Lbs./crane 741/eldb, Per.rpm Heads/92 Oct)if I Were Going To Go Fuel Inj.again I Would Do Away With The Piggy-back Comp.,step Up The Injectors And And Have The Engine Ecm Programed,or Go To A F.a.s.t. Efi System,i Have Had Good Luck With Those On Cars.
