How much is a 6 pack conversion set up worth ?

Seen a couple listed close to me and was wondering how much a complete set up is worth
I am in Canada

There is one ad that has the intake and all three carbs and air cleaner parts all taken off a running motor
Price is $3900 Canadian and not sold for the last couple months now
So one would guess not worth that

What would be a realistic offer if I was going to try to get it ?

ad in question
I have seen him change his price a couple times lower to $3500 and now back up again

Mancini wants $2400 for the setup, minus air cleaner assembly.  https://www.manciniracing.com/manifoldload3.html

This guy sold his setup for $2500:  https://www.forabodiesonly.com/mopar/threads/440-six-pack-setup-complete.443202/

Do you know how long it took for that to sell ?
Was the ad posted a long time like a year ?

My problem is since I am in the great white north and I see these prices I have to add 1/3 to 1/2 more to them to get them in my money and in my hands

So 1/3 more on $2500 is like $3200 to me

I was thinking of offering the guy up here $3000 if that would be reasonable so it sounds like it might be
( Now I just have to save up another $1000 in my fun money fund first )

  Things to consider: If not new how old and condition along with what has been done to it? Linkage, fuel lines and fuel pump (6BBL wants 5lbs pressure yet high volume) these parts start to add up quickly. Your cam could effect tune, how good are you about tuning?
  Next is the learning curve, part of the reason I sold mine was nobody had a clue what to do or where to start if something went wrong. (Except me.) My kids will have my Charger when I'm done so simple is better. (Think about it, 6BBL reason is for WFO so do you really run that way much?)

Considering that it wasn't bumped, had to be less than a couple months

And do you really need a 4 barrel when a two will do ?  :nana:

A six pack is kind of a bucket list thing maybe some day to have
No one really needs one but if an opportunity comes along it is something I would like to try and be on the list of I used to have one

No I had not thought about a bigger fuel pump

5lbs high volume, I ran mine in a pinch with 20.00 auto parts pump.
