What is a factory 401/425 2x4 with correct carbs that need rebuilt worth? I need to make an offer and i don't want to lowball him or take it up the wazoo either
Can anyone give me a ballpark price on this ..stock manifold with correct carbs that need to be rebuilt
I'll throw this out there since there hasn't been a reply yet... I haven't been keeping a close eye on eBay lately, but just an intake fetches around $350+. Carbs sold separately (rare) $250 each. Repo lines and linkage, $200+. Total= $1050 A complete setup did sell on eBay for $2225, complete with valve covers and a nice air cleaner: http://cgi.ebay.com/ebaymotors/ws/e...0501365772&viewitem=&sspagename=STRK:MEWAX:IT Your offer depends on the seller. $650 would be a great buy. But the same setup on ebay could bring well over a grand.
Walt's prices are reasonable for a setup that isn't on ebay. It will depend some what on the seller and condition. Within the last six months, I've paid $180 for a nice front carb and $350 for a complete intake and carbs, but the carbs need some help. There are some places that sell reproduction Chevy 409 2x4 air cleaner that I think will fit the Buick 2x4 setup, but they are expensive and don't have the correct top. Better to find a factory air cleaner. Walt, do you know who sells reproduction linkage, I haven't seen that available before.
Jon over at www.65gs.com has a few sets. He goes by 'gssizzler'. I believe there's a guy in the Riv Owners Association that makes them as well.
