I want to start looking for a triple stromberg manifold to suit the grey.

What do you guys think one is worth? Or is that a "how long is a piece of string kind of question"?
Where do you guys look? The usual...eBay, gumtree etc?

I've got enough carbs at home, just need the manifold and setup the accelerator linkage.

here is probably your best bet man... throw a wanted add up surely someone can help you out... otherwise yep the usual.

though you would probably pay the same price for a brand new 'V8' manifold... just saying :ebiggrin:

I paid $200 for a triple carb manifold for a grey motor, it went with the motor when I sold it.
Would have been about 4 years ago.

Too many people have them as garage art now, they think there for decoration, not to be used :roll: .

Wot - can you let me know what your thinking of selling when you get around to it.

And trev whatever setup I get will be used :twisted: but do agree - a lot of them would be sitting on the shelf in someone's shed collecting dust - guess that would be the same for a lot of old car parts.
