2x4 intake and carbs

    Do you guys know the value of a factory installed small letter cobra 2x4 intake and carbs? It came off one of my k codes. I was told by the previous owner that it was dealer installed. I want to sell it to finance my GT500 restoration. Any help is appreciated.

    It really depends on the completeness of the set up. The air cleaners seem to be the major force in the final price; to a lesser degree the proper fuel log and throttle linkage. The AFB set-up isn't as sought after as the holleys, but $750 was the lowest I've seen them sell for in recent years, They generally go higher-- $1200-1400 plus a bit more. With all the correct pieces, double that.

    I tried to find one, but can't find one. The fuel log for the AFBs is strange in that it had a single leg (stand) compared to other fuel logs Ford used on multiple carb set-ups. Otherwise, It had the same construction characteristics. The air cleaners were Stellings (North Hollywood, CA) similar to the air cleaners folks are familiar with on the dual carb 427 Cobras with a circular perforated, chromed metal band body. In fact there were two like-described bands sandwiching a foam center. Reproduction throttle linkages are (were) readily available and correct in their appearance.

    Hello, I have an original Carter dual quad setup on my K code. If you are intrested, let me know, I can send info and pictures. There is nothing more exciting than seeing two carbs on a hipo engine.
