Re: Price check on ai?sle three - current market value of Caribbean intake

Someone needs to check my recollection, but wasn't the 1x4 374" rated @ 290hp and the 2x4 @ 305hp? That only fifteen additional horsepower and pretty expensive ones to buy and maintain.
Me, I did it for the bling. Here's the Caribbean in my Studebaker pickup.
Note the air filter housing will fit the right way in the truck as opposed to the wrong way in the Packard/Cadillac/Chevrolet.
Also, I converted the Rochesters to electric choke.
Most of the Caribbean parts I've seen recently were pretty crusty/rusty/missing. To round up everything and get it in this condition was a long, expensive process. But it's not about the horsepower; it's about the look.
