Sell it for a modest price. There's several CFI enthusiasts on the forum here who can, and will, put it to good use.

Depends on what you're using it for IMO. The Xfire is a pretty reliable induction system that woud be great for trucks or any application needing good torque production.

I just sold my crossfire setup on ebay for close to $300 for the manifold carbs and injectors with the filter assy, i went with the new edelbrock RPM AIR GAP manifold and a Demon 750cfm carb. with an HEI Dist.
i have alot more HP than i did before, so, $300 would buy the air gap and the HEI dist.

Of course the Crossfire IS a TBI set up. You could just ship it to me. How do you set it up? What do you mean by that?

I am building a vortec TPI motor and will not need the crossfire. Although it is interesting.

Yes, you will need a vortec intake manifold for vortec heads. I won't pay you what you want. billybonesmusic sold his for $300.00. I paid $30.00 for the first one I bought.

I don't think you will see a great deal of money,enough to replace the intake with carbs and distributor. I think EFI-CFI is completely right with the $30 bucks because shipping is going to be expensive for the whole shooting match. You also have no real idea if the xfire even works.
good luck
