Heart Broken on Ebay...(crying in my beer)

Post by GreyStep »

Well it happened again...I take my time watchng an 4v "S" Intake but instead of doing the "buy it now" Nooooo,
I figure no one is bidding on it I will wait :pray: . I fall asleep :zz: just before the auction ends and get out bid by $6...Ahhhhh! :cry: :evil: :cry:
Sorry.. just had to get it off my chest.

That's 'cause someone likely used a bidding program. I use a Firefox add-on called Myibay:

I'll try this next time, or I'll just suck it up and BIN (buy it now).

Thanks

Yeah, I don't care what it is if I want to buy it on ebay I use auctionsniper. I've won 80% of what I bid on with it and didn't have to worry a bit. The 20% that I lost simply went for more than I was willing to spend for it.

"S" code intake is nothing special, just a 4bbl passenger car intake.

From what I have read the S intake flows about as well as the Edlebrock performer just weighs more.
So for my application anything should be better then the 2v carb/intake I have now.

I am not looking for ball bustin performance, I am just looking for better reliability. Truck already has headers
and pertronix. I figure better flow for less loot is not bad trade off.
