They have been gone for a while. You can still find some ones that are in good shape on CL of ebay. A few weeks ago, someone had a "new" set on ebay, but I didnt really look at the price since I am not in the market for them

No i wasnt locked into the slp just thought they would be easier to obtain. I'd perfer the as&m semi siamiezd like you have just thought finding a set of those would be harder to find. I've only seen them in magazines. How much would you have to have for them?

Re: Slp runners discontinued?

They are quite rare I had them on my 388 for years and they still look new. I have over $500 in them with the HPC satin black finish. They were carefully packed and off the car since 1999! I would let them go for $325 plus shipping. I also have fully ported and polished plenum gasket matched to runners with polished metal distributor cover. In addition, polished fuel rails with chromed plated adj fuel pressure regulator. If you send me your contact phone I can text pictures. These are all very high quality....they have not been stuck under a bench somewhere. Let me know, I'd be happy to send pictures. Actually, I also have the metal/chromed AS&M cold air intake with the KN filter. ALL well preserved!
Thanks Carl

Re: Slp runners discontinued?

wow, so these suddenly became "classic" parts? suitable for "period-correct" modifications? oh, excuse me, resto-mods. we're crossing over from hot rods to resto-mods. heaven-forbid, "numbers-matching".

Re: Slp runners discontinued?

I recall getting my Edelbrock base for about $350 from Summit, and the SLP runners for around $300. mebbe that was couple years back. and even at those prices, not an impulse purchase, had to save and budget for it.
