No, tell me who is selling it....


J/k. Yes, that is a good setup! Make sure you get a manifold with that carb. $400 is a steal, if that RB SP exhaust is in good condition, thats 400 alone.

Expect to go from about 80whp to 120ish whp when tuned correctly.

Ask him to install it at that price..... That is a VERY high price to pay for used items.






NOT




Just kidding. Thats a deal and a half, so if you don't buy it pass the info along so someone else can make use of it....

The carb is not for your 12A, but it fits my 12A. Where is the seller?

i think you have your answer. as a note, the color will be Tornado Silver if the code is K8. if you car bears its original paint, the name was changed in 85 to Custom Silver Metallic, color code V9.

And on a side note, the Holley fuel pump is SUPER noisey. Good price though

I'm thinking that he is talking about a setup that 81gen1 is selling. If so, the $400 is everything but the exhaust w/ the exhaust being an extra $250. Even if this is the case, it is still a great deal. I'd take it if I had a 12A.
