silent rick, if you are still in the market for an Edelbrock FM 257 I listed an NOS one on eBay.

thanks, i saw that. i'm going to have to wait for a slightly used manifold in the $350 range.

I don’t blame you. I was not sure of its value so I listed it with a $300 reserve. A day later I looked at the auction and almost fell off my chair!

i was dreading it when i saw yours jump to $700. i knew it would happen. now someone with a shitted up 257 with stripped threads put one up with a 750.00 buy it now price. he describes it as rare. 20-25 years you couldn't get 200 bucks for it with a pair of carbs. a friend of mine sold a 3x2 with carbs for $135. it was all he could get. i seen the same thing happen to hemi parts.
