That triple carb manifold is cool.
Also, not to ***** your thread. I also have some Bassett Headers for an FE, they are rusty and could use a coating. $75 picked up.

You might be sittin' on that 3 deuce for a while at that price. I ran that manifold in the early 80s on an FE, and it was a bitch finding 94s or 97s for that 3 bolt pattern back THEN. A four bolt is more desirable only because Holley still has them available. It is a cool look, and if someone has them around, it will work out well (as good as those flood proned pieces can, I guess).
Just trying to help.

I have 4 97's but you can buy then new for $200 a piece and if the pads were drilled and taped they would accept the four bolt carbs $400 is what I have in the three duce intake if i don't sell it I'll just keep it and put it to use one day

Cool stuff Big Kahunaa. You're prices are on the money too. I've been looking on e bay, following a few manifolds, and the ones like yours are selling for that and more. I have a fomoco 427 cobra manifold I was thinking of selling and was trying to see what they were worth.
I don't know where you can buy new 97s for 200 bucks though. The company that is tooling up the new ones, http://www.stromberg-97.com/, aren't even done with theirs yet, and they'll be priced double that.

The 3 duece manifold is a good buy @ $400 I just picked up a Edelbrock Trantula for a 392 Chrysler with six 97s and paid $2500 and thought I got a good deal,every one that I bid on on Ebay went higher than what I paid . 97's are every where easy to find , if any body buys this I have a five gallon bucket full of 97s .

It seems to me that somewhere along the line I saw somebody selling 97's set up as throttle bodies for an injection set-up. Has anybody else seen these or am I losing it?
That would be a neat set-up!

I don't know. Around here in so cal 97's are pretty hard to come by now. Even 94s are getting kinda rare. Guys are asking an arm and a leg for them too. Rat rod guys really changed the price of things over the last 10 years or so.
I have 3 or 4 or each to hold me over for a while. More importantly, a few winfields too.....real hot rod carbs. lol.

Yes the rat rods have sky rocketed hemi parts also especially multi carb manifolds . I usually find the carbs I have at swaps one or two at a time I also have two small block 12 packs complete linkage and both with 97s. I think obnoxious 001 found one for my son and I got it from him for a few hundred complete . H29

I ran an old SBC Fenton 3 duece set up for a couple of years on my 41 Ford. It was also originally set up for strombergs. rather than re drill it I made 3/4 inch alum spacers that bolted to the manifold with the 3 bolt stromberg pattern and mounted rochester 2GC's on them. It was a nice setup for a weekend driver!!

You're prices are on the money too. I've been looking on e bay, following a few manifolds, and the ones like yours are selling for that and more.No doubt, I recently saw an Offy 2x4 FE intake sell on eBay for $500 :sqeyes: ...just like this one:

Since we're talking exotic intakes, Lakes, you'd appreciate this...I had, in my pozesshun, (and on my motor), an original, one of only 10 made, factory dual quad intakes for a 429. It was cast by Buddy Barr (as were most of Ford's intakes) and was designed for the Ford TA cars running the 429CJ motors. I got 1K for it 2 years ago. I hated selling it, but the $$ went toward the down on my house. FPP makes one just like it...sort of. :D
I also have, for sale, a pair of fairly rare C4AE-G big port FE cyl heads, if anybody's interested.
Big K...your prices are right there for those intakes. Good luck.
