I highly doubt he will get his asking price. Perhaps half? For about $1400 U.S you can get this from Vintage Speed. It has the same cool factor in my opinion:
or you could bolt this onto your current 4bbl:

I took it on tade in with a Buick Roadmaster Wagon I had a few years ago-it only had two carbs and the four chrome thingys, I sold it to a guy in Ancaster who added the other two carbs and resold it, Earl is right-way too much carb for a 283, Todd it right three carbs will do the same "cool" job
Damn, i guess i let my old 3-2's go too cheap!! I think i sold the intake and carbs for around $200! That staggered 4-1s is really cool though, not many of those around!

I allowed $500 on trade in and sold at $300 to the only caller, mind you it wasn't complete-$2200 is fishing I'd say-but what do I know, triple twos usually $500-$700 Andrew
Now i dont feel so bad! If i can only get over the sting of Nortel now... I sold mine a while back, to my dads friend for his rod, so i really didnt care if i got more than i paid (seeing as he was my dads foreman, and my car was well serviced from all the guys in the shop!!)... definitely cool in the looks department, but a single 4 worked better for me!

I'd be interested in 3x2 for a small block chev (350) if complete for 500$

there was one here in Welland on Hobson Ave about three or four houses down on the right side-french guy, wanted $400 but when I showed interest he said $600-your welcome to look it up
Edelbrock still sells there three 3x2 manifold. is in the Summit cat. for 271.95 US. But you would still have to come up with three carbs to rebuild and modify. $500 looks like would be a good price.
I'd love it for my car....too bad its not running right now...It would be too much carb though. Sort of like the Man-A-Fre manifold on the American Graffiti Coupe.

I need Earls spare caddy motor that carb set up and a 53 pontiac what a sweet ride that would be!
You can get a 3X2 intake for a earlier Cadi 390 and adapt it to fit the 429. There is a slight difference between them. That would make a serious hot rod engine.
