Check E-bay. Usually about $300 for the plenum, runners, intake, throttle body and fuel rail alone. With the harness, MAF sensor (if so equipped), all the harness, relays, ESC, etc. probably upwards of $600. Seems like most units are sold with harness separate. I paid $300 a couple of years ago for an entire totaled '86 Camaro, drivetrain and all with everything intact except the MAF sensor for $300, but that's an unusual find.

Its hard to say. I had kept my eye on every tpi unit for sale on ebay for a couple of months and you would see some units that were complete sell for around $300 and then other times you would see a similar set up sell for about $200. I have seen some clean untits go as high as $400 but ive seen alot of complete L98 motors sell for less than $700 and even whole tpi cars less for under a thousand so its really tough to say.

I bought a complete, loaded 86' Iroc for $400(needing a freezeout plug replaced). Bought another running 305 TPI motor for a spare for $375 frome the local salvage yard and bought a dirty TPI unit for $100 from a local guy and got the harness, fuelpump, distributor, ECM & MAF for another $150.00. Again, these are all good deals.
I would think that it would depend on the condition of your TPI & the harness & if you have the distributor for it too. A TPI w/o dented runners although nearly impossible to find will bring a premium. A polished TPI brings good money. The harness is pretty much worthless unless it is for a restoration on a TPI car IMO with the availability of the aftermarket harnesses. The only thing the harness would be good for is the various do dads that are on it, ESC, relays, ect...
