I wish we could know exactly,....

I've always wanted a stacked injection, but way too expensive. One like this, could be affordable, but I don't want a piece of *hit and troubles.

"This is what the seller just wrote me.

"When I Google Ford FE 8 stack manifold it looks exactly like the fast one, throttle bodys too except polished, the rails are different though

You would still need to buy a stand alone system. Wiring harness. Injectors. Etc. about 5 grand more.

Ya, that sucks !
I've heard of some complete systems costing around 12k (+)

Nothing looks cooler in a Cobra than stacked injection.

I think a carb and turkey pan look just as good per original. Or even better dual carbs.

I like dual carbs and the pan, but prefer the stacks.

Don't know who's it is but the body castings and throttle linkage parts look exactly like my Borla stuff.

Yeah, well, the looks are just about ALL you are paying for with stack-style injection on a street driven car...

You pay 10 grand+, for a system that looks REALLY cool, but still only offers half the benefits that you would get with a true closed loop, mass-airflow managed port injection system (which costs half as much)....

Like this one:

FE Ford Complete Mass Air Sequential Port EFI System - Ford Complete EFI Systems - Pro-M EFI Engine Management Systems

These Pro-M systems are cool- the mass airflow sensor sits on top of the throttle body, hiding underneath your old-school style air cleaner. Add a turkey pan to cover up the fuel rails, and you would still have a "correct" vintage look (yeah, I know, not as cool looking as 8 air horns), and you get ALL the advantages of a self-calibrating, closed loop EFI system.

But hey- if coolness is what you're after, you could take that extra 5 grand that you'd save, and find a set of original magnesium Halibrands...
