Ebay Deal, new carb and intake for under $200

Got a new Weiand dual plane SBC intake off Ebay for $60 from a guy who bought it new for his boat and it did not fit. He had painted it orange already but never installed it. I am going to paint it with cast iron engine paint. No shipping cause he lived nearby me. Also scored a new Holley 600 cfm vacuum secondary with electric choke off Ebay for only $100 plus shipping. Guy posted no pics on Ebay so nobody bid. I e-mailed him for pics and he sent them to me but never added pics to his auction. New in box, never run, still has the factory tags hanging from them and all the hardware/instructions. Now I can toss that leaking oem 2 barrel Holley and cast iron boat anchor.

Actually, my old 71 Mustang had an Autolite 2 barrel and it was great. Crapped out at the top end but great for taking me to highschool without killing my mileage. I actually might have kept this Holley 2 barrel if the choke worked and if it did not leak out of every gasket. I figure it's cheaper and smarter to go with a new Holley 4 barrel since I know them and have extra parts for them lying around.
