So I am eyeing the real estate occupied by the carb cooling fan for routing gas lines to the sniper. Is there benefit to keeping it for the sniper?

I will be interested in your experience, and anything else you end up needing to do to make it work well. I just installed a long range tank and replaced all soft hoses/connections ... now realize I need better hoses/connections since with sniper will be looking at 60 psi. I too was wondering about carb fan.In Boise, I used to live in Saratoga Springs. My sniper install has started at glacial pace. Replacing the fuel tank and all lines hoses at the same time.
Did you just use the original temp sensor and plug in the module and it kicks on at a certain temp? I am installing the sniper but before I was going that route I did a full restore of the carb cooler. Looks beautiful and hate not to use it especially if it does some good.I left my carb fan and it cools my AFI TBI. It provides nostalgic memories of all the times it didn't prevent hot soak and vapor lock To me, it seems useful to cool the manifold and keep heat away from the TBI bits any way you can.
Very cool! I’m going to see if mine still fits. I installed the proportioning valve when I did the rear discs so it might not fit.Yes. The original sensor is mounted to the exh. manifold and the green wiring terminal hangs off the brake light switch harness whose other 2 connectors clip to the brake sensors on the bottom of the master cylinder. It turns on at temp XX, and runs for up to 30 minutes (usually less) as determined by the fan computer mounted under the dash.
