wondering if i got a good deal

-
yeah thats the thing i know it most likey will kill some streetability... but honestly it looks awesome and someone with my income could never justify as much for an intake as this thing is worth so i think i might go for it its one of those once in a lifetime opportunities XD
 
If you take that intake off be careful, they seem to be fairly fragile. Have 2 friends that have those rascals because, it was the manifold to have, way back in the 70's and 80's. Both of them have weld on the base casting and one has the top welded on and I'm positive that neither have been used with nitrous.
 
Thief.....

Awesome awesome find. Intake alone can go for upwards of 1500 on fleabay and other sites. Add the two holleys well there's another couple hundred.
 
In addition you are double lucky cause IQ52 is in your neck of the woods and Jim can make those heads work for you if they aren't already right.

The Father is prolly rolling in his grave, pounding on the top of the coffin to let him out so he can strangle the kid!
 
Ill bet the thing has a pretty serious cam and high comp forged pistons and port work on the heads to go with that intake. Those cross rams are kind of finicky if you do not know what you are doing. Not real street friendly though
 
Absolutely killer score for 800 bucs....may have all the goodies to go with it inside...never know til you open it up...I wouldnt get rid of anything til you know the complete combo,likely a matched combo of components,but you really scored with that intake and carbs which is worth more than what you paid for it,do some research on it..congrats...
 
Since I didn't get it, you got screwed with a capitol F. LOL
 
he never had anything to do with the build up (plus hes a cheby guy) his father in law built it and recently died so he was just selling off his stuff. supposedly was gonna go in a gtx.

You should go see about that nasty ole Plymouth and try to steal it for what it would bring rolling across the scales.

You better milk it for all it's worth since your in the door,might be a hemi in the trunk...lol
 
If there is one thing I can't stand it's a damn thief LOL! UDUST I wouldn't worry about losing streetability with that intake, with some tuning you can make it work and it is too cool not to use, I scored a STR15 for my 383 and I intend to use it street strip as well. Good luck with your build nice score man.
 
Did some researching and those intakes don't work worth a dam so I'll be a nice friend and trade u my Indy intake for that srt 14

very nice score! I ran into deals years ago, but nothing like your deal.
 
Good for U DUST 81! Nice score!

And that saying, "If it sounds to good to be true,............" definitely doesn't apply here!
