Default Holley AFPR

I figure I would snap off a couple of pics before it gets burried under the plenum and runners.

Are there any tricks to keep my photos from blurring/getting bit mappy when I reduce them. They start off at 1600x1200 pixels from my camera. I usually reduce them down to 600x450 before I post them. and often times, like these photos, they get blurry.

The top disc turns. Like a thumb screw but a little bigger.

I may purchase that one to replace the one on my car to get the new diaphram. I need to figure out if I have enough space with the superram on to get it off w/o removing the plenum. :)

The others are all cr*$. I've wasted more money on the others before I found the Holley unit three years ago. It's a totally new unit. Spring, diaphram, housing, the whole nine yards. Best thing is, you don't need to fiddle around with a tiny ignition wrench to adjust it. The whole top of the regulator IS the adjuster. Nice piece. Thanks for taking a picture of it. I've tried for years to describe it to other Forum members.

Your photos look good to me also!. It depends on what photo editing program you are using, but most will have a setting to adjust the resolution when you resize and save it. Some will let you adjust the D.P.I., or high, medium or low quality. I try to keep my pics as small of file size as possible (for those who are bandwidth challenged), but still keep it looking decent.

The Holley afpr looks great, especially if you've polished the plenum & fuel rails. It's alot more durable than others from what I've read.

I had rounded off some of the "tamper proof" torx screws when I was playing around with trying to make my own afpr, so I went with some new allen head screws. The screw size & a pic of my Holley afpr is on this link: http://forums.corvetteforum.com/zerothread?id=159466

I just put a Holley AFPR and a Holley TB on my LT4. I show my car most of the time and these Holley pieces are nice and shiney.

KOHO (It's a hockey thing),

Your photo and description in that thread was the impetus behind my getting the Holley AFPR.

Thank-you

Scorp,

Let me know your results with space clearance. I may need the regulator soon myself.

I have taken the AFPR off with the SR plenum and runners in-place, it's no problem unless you loose hardware under the plenum. :lol:
