Stangboy 14 Report post Posted December 13, 2015 I am interested also. It's in my plans for later, but if the price is right I may buy it and stash it until I'm ready. Quote Share this post Link to post Share on other sites
tonyinsandiego 37 Report post Posted December 14, 2015 I think I'd be interested depending on the discount. I think 10% is there average discount just for the asking. Sounds like a nice setup. Regards, Quote Share this post Link to post Share on other sites
prayers1 153 Report post Posted December 14, 2015 Correct me if I'm wrong, but this looks like we got 17 so far. We should be able to get more than a 10% discount with that. prayers1 Rsanter SM69mach rwcstang mikestang bryonbush shaun071 Shep69 69ish blueblood Fordguy69 cavboy78 Jefhuf ronz75 craigm stangboy tonyinsandiego Quote Share this post Link to post Share on other sites

prayers1 153 Report post Posted December 14, 2015 69ISH, It will work with the Shaker. As you will see on my Avator I have the Shaker as well. Let us know your intentions, Quote Share this post Link to post Share on other sites
1969_Mach1 333 Report post Posted December 14, 2015 Don't count me in, I am looking for someone else to try it with an aftermarket shaker and RPM manifold before I even think about it. I love my shaker and I am not willing to lose it. I'm not part of the purchasing group. But good point. Does the shape of it create any interference limitations with any of the drop base air cleaners? It's probably okay but just thought it might be worth verifying. Especially if its on a 351W motor with an aftermarket intake. Hood clearance is very minimal and 1-1/4+ drop bases are sometimes necessary. Also, will it accept kick down linkage for those running an FMX, C4 or C6 trans? Quote Share this post Link to post Share on other sites
prayers1 153 Report post Posted December 14, 2015 I've been told by FiTech that if the Shaker works with a Holley then it will work with their TBI as well. Quote Share this post Link to post Share on other sites
shaun071 62 Report post Posted December 14, 2015 I'm definitely in, the minister for finance and total war has approved the purchase. The 10% discount will cover freight. Anything more is a bonus! Quote Share this post Link to post Share on other sites
Shep69 149 Report post Posted December 14, 2015 I'm definitely in, the minister for finance and total war has approved the purchase. The 10% discount will cover freight. Anything more is a bonus! I emailed FiTech to get a shipping price to Australia to get an idea what we are up for. Still waiting for a reply.I was talking to a guy yesterday and he was telling me that as we have signed the free trade agreement with the US as from Feb next year we should see our Aussie dollar rise a bit. Don't know how true this is but one can only hope. Quote Share this post Link to post Share on other sites
shaun071 62 Report post Posted December 15, 2015 The freight "should" be under $100au. I've had similar sized boxes shipped here for $70-80 au. Quote Share this post Link to post Share on other sites
69ISH 10 Report post Posted December 15, 2015 69ISH, It will work with the Shaker. As you will see on my Avator I have the Shaker as well. Let us know your intentions, Sorry I am not willing to take the gamble as I have already had to cut bits and fibreglass sections of the shaker base to make it fit.I have 2 different carbies 1 being a Speed Demon 750 and the other a Qft black diamond 830 the shaker fits well on the speed demon not so well on the Qft cost me about $650AUD for the Qft and now sits on the shelf as it is.

MikeStang 247 Report post Posted December 15, 2015 It appears to be designed Exactly like a Holley carb. So dimensions are probably the same I would guess? You can always modify the shaker base... Come on 69ish don't be a Wuss...Sale the QFT carb and take the money and buy another aftermarket shaker base and modify it if needed. Quote Share this post Link to post Share on other sites
1969_Mach1 333 Report post Posted December 15, 2015 C'mon MikeStang. If 69ish doesn't want to make the purchase he doesn't have to. Plus, just throwing this out because I am a bit curious, why is the retail price of this system at least half the price of every other system on the market? And with the retail price already so low how can they give additional discounts? It can't all be attributed to business overhead. Quote Share this post Link to post Share on other sites
MikeStang 247 Report post Posted December 15, 2015 Ah Im just messing with 69Ish because He really NEEDS the EFI Kit like the rest of us do LOL. Im not sure that they are 1/2 of the competition are they. Whats the MSD Atomic Kit go for just for the TB and associated harness and stuff minus the fuel system goodies Quote Share this post Link to post Share on other sites
bryonbush 85 Report post Posted December 15, 2015 So have we heard anything else about the discount or is it still 10%? Quote Share this post Link to post Share on other sites
shaun071 62 Report post Posted December 16, 2015 Just putting it out there but we may not hear much until the new year with it being holiday season. The people who can make the decision on a further discount may already be on Christmas leave. That might not be a bad thing as it gives stangnet time to get more people on board for the group buy.

Jefhuf 13 Report post Posted December 16, 2015 Agreed Shaun but we should also try to have a collective agreement on a trigger date for this. I've seen a bunch of group buys fall through because they just drag on and folks lose interest Quote Share this post Link to post Share on other sites
Shep69 149 Report post Posted December 16, 2015 The freight "should" be under $100au. I've had similar sized boxes shipped here for $70-80 au. Wonder if we will also get charged with GST Shaun!!! As it will be over 1k by the time we convert to US dollars. 1 shaun071 reacted to this Quote Share this post Link to post Share on other sites

Holley is also bringing out a system under 1k so maybe we have been getting ripped off for a while now. When you break it down all the parts that make up the system are relativly cheap. And they buy in bulk and save even more. Bet you by this time next year all the EFI systems on the market will be about the same price . More competition means cheaper prices . Can only be a good thing for consumers. Quote Share this post Link to post Share on other sites
