Selling Project engine intake/carb-input needed

I'm going to list the factory 4bbl intake and carb on CL, I figure a C-note to ask is a good price?

My thinking is if someone local wants to upgrade a 2bbl 460, this is a good way to go and stay smog legal....

Price okay to list?

If no takers after a few weeks, I'll list it up on EBAY and let the chips fall.

Works for me! Is it a clean unit? People pay a lot more for a coat of paint!

Also, you might mention that the 4bls can give you better mileage as the primaries are smaller.

Never worked for me as I can't keep from cracking the throttle - the only way I can keep from opening the secondaries is to wire them shut!

It's all clean now, I steamed everything this afternoon.

I rememeber back when I used to tell myself 4bbls would be better on gas than a 2bbl too

I have not had any luck with Craigslist, but ebay has worked for me. Price seems fair, should sell quickly.

ebay might pull a few extra bucks, but keep in mind shipping costs. craig's list you can tell them to come pick it up. craigs list you can also suggest barter. Anything we need? Tires?

The tires we have are a bit thin. I figured they'd do as starting point, (hey, they were free...) but there's really not a lot left of them so yes, we need better tires...
