I\u2019m one of those gearheads who feels that \u201cChrome is nice, but chrome won\u2019t get you home.\u201d Because of this, I tend to shy away from as much shiny chrome stuff under my head as I can. Give me flat black or brushed aluminum any day. However, Holley knows that many of you out there like to see shiny stuff under your hood. For this reason, Holley makes the Eliminator Stealth in both shiny and matte black-which they call hardcore grey.<\/p>\n<p>They also give you four different types of kits to buy:<\/p>\n<ul>\n<li>The Master Kit, which includes everything you need to convert your carbureted fire-breather to a fuel injected fire-breather. This includes the controller, wired handheld tuner, regulator, fuel pump, filters, 40 feet of fuel line, and the fuel tank bulkhead fitting for the return line.<\/li>\n<li>The EFI Kit, which includes the throttle body, the controller, and a wired handheld tuner.<\/li>\n<li>Service throttle body, which replaces a malfunctioning throttle body or can be used as an upgrade unit.<\/li>\n<li>Stealth EFI Kit with GM transmission control. This is the Stealth EFI kit with that addition of an internal controller for GM electronic transmissions such as the 4L80E.<\/li>\n<\/ul>\n<p>&nbsp;<\/p>\n<figure id=\"attachment_31307\" aria-describedby=\"caption-attachment-31307\" style=\"width: 638px\" class=\"wp-caption aligncenter\"><img loading=\"lazy\" decoding=\"async\" data-attachment-id=\"31307\" data-permalink=\"https:\/\/www.racingjunk.com\/news\/old-school-carb-looks-with-efi-performance-from-holleys-terminator-stealth\/termstealthpolished\/\" data-orig-file=\"https:\/\/www.racingjunk.com\/news\/wp-content\/uploads\/2016\/10\/termstealthpolished.jpg\" data-orig-size=\"1200,800\" data-comments-opened=\"1\" data-image-meta=\"{&quot;aperture&quot;:&quot;0&quot;,&quot;credit&quot;:&quot;&quot;,&quot;camera&quot;:&quot;&quot;,&quot;caption&quot;:&quot;&quot;,&quot;created_timestamp&quot;:&quot;0&quot;,&quot;copyright&quot;:&quot;&quot;,&quot;focal_length&quot;:&quot;0&quot;,&quot;iso&quot;:&quot;0&quot;,&quot;shutter_speed&quot;:&quot;0&quot;,&quot;title&quot;:&quot;&quot;,&quot;orientation&quot;:&quot;0&quot;}\" data-image-title=\"termstealthpolished\" data-image-description=\"\" data-image-caption=\"&lt;p&gt;For those who like shiny under the hood, there are also four shiny\/polished options.&lt;\/p&gt;\n\" data-medium-file=\"https:\/\/www.racingjunk.com\/news\/wp-content\/uploads\/2016\/10\/termstealthpolished-300x200.jpg\" data-large-file=\"https:\/\/www.racingjunk.com\/news\/wp-content\/uploads\/2016\/10\/termstealthpolished-1024x683.jpg\" class=\"size-large wp-image-31307\" src=\"http:\/\/www.racingjunk.com\/news\/wp-content\/uploads\/2016\/10\/termstealthpolished-1024x683.jpg\" alt=\"Old School Carb Looks with EFI Performance from Holley\u2019s Terminator Stealth\" width=\"638\" height=\"426\" srcset=\"https:\/\/www.racingjunk.com\/news\/wp-content\/uploads\/2016\/10\/termstealthpolished-1024x683.jpg 1024w, https:\/\/www.racingjunk.com\/news\/wp-content\/uploads\/2016\/10\/termstealthpolished-300x200.jpg 300w, https:\/\/www.racingjunk.com\/news\/wp-content\/uploads\/2016\/10\/termstealthpolished-768x512.jpg 768w, https:\/\/www.racingjunk.com\/news\/wp-content\/uploads\/2016\/10\/termstealthpolished.jpg 1200w\" sizes=\"auto, (max-width: 638px) 100vw, 638px\" \/><figcaption id=\"caption-attachment-31307\" class=\"wp-caption-text\">For those who like shiny under the hood, there are also four shiny\/polished options.<\/figcaption><\/figure>\n<p>&nbsp;<\/p>\n<p>The Terminator Stealth EFI throttle body unit fits the standard Holley 4150 4BBL (pretty much universal four barrel carb) mounting, so it\u2019s quick and easy to perform the mechanical change out.
