Anybody have an idea of the price range for a Enderle Stack Injection manfold, stacks, throttles, and linkage for a SBF? I have a chance to buy one (haven't seen it yet) and don't know what it's worth. I'm not really looking for guesses here, but if you have any pricing info or links to a site that could help, please post it here. Thanks, Jim

Based on some quick googling, it appears that peice of kit goes for $1500ish new (based on the chevy price, not ford) what's the asking price?

$450. My motivation is to convert it into EFI.

Sounds pretty good. Weld in the bungs for proper injectors, Mega Squirt, 954 hours of tuning, good to go!!

$450 sounds like a good deal to me as well, I would expect something like that to normally cost between $1-2k depending on how complete, etc.

Well I bought it. I got it for $400. It looks to have been used very little. It included everything, the manifold, throttles, stacks, injectors, linkage, hoses, belt driven pump drive and pump good for 300psi. One stack is damaged, but other than that everything looks good. I'll post a pic of it tomorrow if anyone is interested. Thanks for the feedback, guys. Now all I have to do is decide if it's going on the Mustang or the TVR....

You got it. Paleez ignore the grimy engine - it was a convenient place to set the manifold. It ended up coming with the drive and mechanical pump also, all in great shape. I'm going to use an electric pump, but I can sell off the mechanical stuff and recoup some of my money. I'll likely use shorter stacks, although if I end up putting it in my Mustang, it will fit under the hood as is. The old injector ports will be hard plumbed for vacuum and new bosses installed for the electronic injectors. waddyathink?

There would be something very exciting about seeing those sorts of stacks standing up through the hood of a TVR. That said, if I had a TVR I would have a hard time cutting a hole into the hood of the thing, so I won't fault you for not going that route.
Looks like you've got a fun pile of work ahead with this thing.

I like side draught carbs almost as much as vertical stacks!

Holy crap you got a deal! Looks awesome. I would love to put a setup like that on my Vic, if they fit under the Mustang hood, I am pretty sure I could run those stacks under the stock hood as well

Thanks guys. In my Mustang, the top of the stacks is exactly the same height as the top of the air cleaner, which is not a low profile. From the bottom of the manifold to the top of the stacks is 10", and of course shorter stacks can be fitted and an air cleaner should be fitted. My original thought was to use it on the TVR, but I haven't totally decided to go with a V-8 in that car. But it will go on one car or the other for sure.
I'm glad you guys think I got a good deal, because I wasn't sure, since i couldn't find any for sale to compare it with! Hell, I thought it was worth the $400 just to hang it on the wall in my shop!
