            Yeah, those might actually be priced to sit very still for a very long time. Good luck though.

              Crackhead price, bad.

              Nice pieces, good.

              New or not, these aren't pieces that go bad. A junkyard trip would bring about a suitable valve cover or manifold. I'd bet members here have extras laying about. If they were new, their value would be in the NOS appeal. No need to refinish a fresh part. Refinish a haggard piece.

              Richard, I think this will go for $250.

                  new old stock, but yea. Bought it new.


                  I appreciate everyone's feedback and I've taken it into consideration. I am negotiable so If you decide you'd like the parts lets chat.

                  Thank you!

                    Is there some great benefit to yours over the catuned set that goes for $300 and change plus shipping?

                      The Benefit would be that you're buying new parts, not someone else's cores. I guess the additional benefit is that I'm also offering the timing cover kit which has also been powdercoated.

                      I'm flexible on pricing so shoot an offer out there. Don't be put off because I said I want a million dollars.

                        Is this really a benefit? These are not parts that go bad, warp, crack, break, wear, etc. It is not comparable to buying a new hose, or belt or the caution necessary when buying a head (is it cracked, warped, etc).

                        I'm outta here. GLWS.

                          Well that would explain the $600 price op is looking to get.

                          I'm sorry to say the same thing as everyone else, but this is worth $250-300. The fact that they're new... nobody cares about that.

                          You might have better luck on ebay?
