Have 1985 Mercury Capri 4V HO. Any one tell me the approx. cost to rebuild this 4 barrel or replace if not rebuildable...orig. owner. Just took car out of storage.

This is 5.0 stock..

you'd probably be better off just picking up something like the 80457 holley.. 600cfm..to buy a rebuilt one is gonna cost about $300...you can get the rebuild kit for about $35.... if it's not to worn out.. mine was shot.. so I just got the 600 holley..

oh yeah, remember that the idle mixture screws on the stock carb work backwards compared to a normal carb..
