Rigging Holley Sniper with better components?
I’m 99% sure that I’ll go ahead with the Holley Sniper on my 509. It comes as a complete kit with a Walbro 225lph pump, filters, and misc clamps and hoses. It seems to me that this is pretty light duty stuff for a marine application. Thoughts about using the supplied components or find a better fuel pump and filters? One reason is the kit uses hose clamps which I hate. I much prefer push on/an fittings. The main reason is that I’d rather invest in better components and do it just once. |
You might want to build your own system starting with the pick up, size to your projected HP. Maybe use the FloMax 300M filter / water separators.

Currently have the Hardin filter head with 1/2” fip to -8 line to the tank. ~600hp in dyno trim. |
Nothing wrong with walbro pumps...but that pump seems small for a 509 depending on your goals.
225 lph = ~ 358 lbs/hr gasoline 358/0.6 BSFC = ~ 600 hp......on the edge not having a pump curve (or fuel system to estimate line pressure losses) to double check, regulator pressure and not knowing the specifics of your engine, Id run a bigger pump (depending on goals) and use parker pushlock plumbing (JIC = AN) |
