Default The Bruise - Holley EFI/Ladder Bar Build

Well to get those up to date that remember my white extended cab, here about a year ago I pulled the Nitrous 370/4l80e/stock wiring, and rear end out and put it all into a 2000 rcsb. It ran 10.04 @ 135 with some issues, next pass the trans blew up. It sat for a while and then went in a Th400 with a trans brake and PTC 4000 nitrous converter.

Testing on the street before a race.

Fast forward up to a few months ago I start collecting parts to build 3 way adjustable ladder bars, 9" with 35 spline axles, DA coilovers, and etc. Then I picked up the Holley HP EFI, along with the nitrous driver and other parts to go along with it. Also got the Leash Electronics pro 6 relay board.
Then after losing $200 on a race because the nitrous didn't hit, it was time to wire everything up.

Finished project, went ahead pulled the radio and hvac controls and built a tac/switch panel. I have a master toggle to power the wiring board, toggle for the Holley, momentary start toggle, dome light toggle, then up top is my nitrous activation that also starts the fuel pump for my stand alone, then below that is the bang button to purge the nitrous thru the motor. Then to the right is the bottle heater toggle with the purge button below to blow the pressure off the line after a pass.

Cool man. I was wondering about your set up a couple days ago. Been looking at Danny's build thread where you guys were putting the 9" and ladder bar set up in. I'm going to go that route this summer so I'm interested to see how yours turns out.

Are you going to be notching the frame like you did on phantoms truck or are you not going that low?

It probably won't be that low, if I do make it that low I'll probably cut the rear clip off and tube it.

Would you bend tubing yourself or is there a chassis company out there that makes a back half kit for our trucks?

looking good. keep us updated.


at the risk of sounding like a tard, what does a relay board do? I looked it up on leash and it doesn't give much of an explanation...and I'm an electrical dummy.

A relay board, lets you turn on high amp devices, like fuel pump, N2O systems ect with low amp switches, like a Holley EFI system. Basically it's just a bunch of fuses and relays mounted to a board and wire to nice neat terminals so you can clean up and organize the wiring. make for nice, simple, clean installs
