It is a decent H/C/I setup with IMO the best looking intake out there for our cars. I am not a fan of alphabet cams but if it runs decent then it sounds like a decent starting point. The questions I would have is how many miles are on the block and why is he just selling the motor (what happened to the rest of the car?)
I also would think if your harley was in decent shape you are probably going to lose some money on that trade. However you did say it needed tlc so it is ultimately up to you. Trust your gut.
I agree with this if there is no emotional attachment it would be a easier thing to part ways with.I would say that if you don't have any emotional attachment to your Harley it would be worth it. Assuming there is nothing wrong with the engine. . Sell the wheels to pay for the refresh
You say the bike needs a little TLC? How "little" are we talking here? What's the bike realistically worth? Now compare that to what the car is realistically worth?
If it were me, I'd probably leave the GT40 intake right where it was and put the Edelbrock up for sale....or better yet, sell them both. The standard Performer is a better intake, but not by a vast margin. I say if you're going to swap it out, swap it out for something that'll breath like an Edelbrock RPM II, Trick Flow Track Heat, or Holly Systemax II. That way, if you do ever decide to make some power with this thing, you won't have to replace the intake a second time.In all honesty the trades are about even, the bike needs just a couple little things, rear brakes, rear tire, battery, probably a decent carb cleaning, front fork seals. If I do end up getting this I probably will sell the tubular and just use my Edelbrock and use the money towards something else.
