These days,about $400 Darren.Getting harder and harder to find and are very unique.Also check out the price of twin carb manifold set-ups for grey motors.One complete set up went for $790 just recently! :o

I have a set on my car, and I paid $175 and got a twin carb manifold thrown in about 18 months ago. It took me a while to find them. They were listed in the wrong section on eBay and I swooped like a bird of prey.
I would think that $250 to $300 is a fair price if in good condition.

Twin carbs set ups vary in price depending on the brand, linkages and carbs and the condition.

There is one seller that usually has a very high starting price, all  his stuff is fully kitted and polished, but hey why buy it for $750 when with a little effort you could put it together for half that or less.

Cheers Jim

I agree Jim,over the last couple of days,several twin carb manifolds have sold for as little as $30,one in really good condition didn't even get a bid at $60 so I'm not sure why people are spending that kind of money on a full set up.As far as I know,the carbs on the early grey  twin manifolds were not matched or anything special unlike the X2 carbies (specified as being matched,and specifically stamped?).There must be millions of stromies around and I've noticed that just about all the linkages seem to be set up differently.Getting off the topic a bit here though,sorry.... :)
