    Another 70 Grabber :). Welcome to the club.

    I have Sniper on mine too, great system drives like a modern. Only hassle is waiting the 2-3 seconds for the system to prime and boot up before you start it.

    I followed the instructions to the letter and from first start have never had any issue with it.

    Thanks!

    Yup the fuel injection is awesome.

    Vic, I bought the car with the FItech installed. I have been reading on a few forums about tuning but have  not fiddled with it much, I found some youtube videos and info on a chevelle forum also.  It does start well cold and hot, so far I love it.  Sorry I dont have much info right now.

    Thanks for the info. I may have seen twister stripes previously, but without the twister in the back it wasn't apparent what you had, since it still says Mach1. I found a vendor (Graphics Express) with standard stripes that are non-reflective gloss black- is that what you have, or are yours a matte/flat finish?

    I get why people are changing to the bigger wheels and tires with shorter side walls- I know you can't do a comparison, but I'm wondering if the ride seems stiff or bumpy?  Those should definitely handle better than traditional wheels and tires, and may even be less expensive.

    The stripes are mate/flat finish. i really like the look and handling of the low profile tires but they do give a very stiff ride and in a 50 year old car fairly noisy. when i do the floor pan work i will add sound deadening.

     i priced replacement tires and should be able to get them for around $200 a tire. The 18" & 20" rims seem a little pricey but it handles great. i am looking into rolling the rear fender lips so i can drop the rear 2", its a little too high for my taste. The front fenders are already rolled.

    Welcome to the forum! Nice looking 70, doesn't look like much is needed. Grabber Green or Silver Jade work for me. 

    Thanks, much appreciated. Much of the work is done, some knick knack stuff but eventually i will need to address some floor pan issues and cowl issues, right now we will enjoy it, she runs great.

    Welcome to the forum. That's a very good looking car. I don't recall ever seeing that side stripe before. Are they reflective? That's what I don't like about mine. Do you know your wheel and tire sizes?

    Thanks, those are Twister Stripes, non reflective, I removed the Twister Logo from the rear fender. the previous owner installed those, it originally was grabber Green with the reflective C stripes from the factory.

    The front tires are Nitto 245 40 R18 on American Racing Torque Thrust II and the rears are 275 35 R20, I do not Know the back space yet, I have not removed them.

    We bought it just like this painted 69 Silver Jade, we added Vintage Air AC. It has a built up 351c 4VCC,  FItech fi, nice comp flat tappet hydro cam. 

    Looking forward to sharing and learning.
