I can't seem to figure out how to show a pic, but I have for sale swapped throttle body intakes for sale. Tig welders are a great thing. I will try $300.00 + shipping + a $50.00 core. I want the old ones back so I can make more. If you are intrested I can provide pics. Unless someone can tell me how to post pics.

thats a little pricy seeings how you can get a custom SMIM from JMFabrications for $100 more. id say more like $200-250 without a core charge or maybe a $25 core charge.

$300.00 was just a starting point. I am not even sure what they are worth. I know the time that is involved.
Any takers???

What kind of labor and materials go into a manifold? Does it include provisions for a throttle cable?

It'd be nice to get rid of the stock mess of a throttle body.

Getting the engine bolted in is about 10% of the way there.
The next 80% can go quickly with help and skill.
That last 10% takes about as long as the 90% that came before it.

I would figure about 5-6 hours of labor. Not much in materials. Just a couple welding rods. I am using a Lokar throttle cable, so I can't be sure of how the cable setup would be on a Starion. I am able to do whatever you need. I will see if I can get a Starion throttle cable this weekend. Maybe I can come up with a solution.
I came up with that price for the labor time alone. For the first few I will be using a couple that I have laying around.
Do I have any takers???
