Good luck... even @ $100 for the pair, I've had no luck getting rid of my stock 241 heads on here. Of course, mine have 201,500 miles on them

Do your heads say "241" or "243" on them? If they're "243" (ls6 heads) you might get 4 or 5 hundred for them. 241s are a dime a dozen, apparently.

veyr true..I have BRAND NEW bare 241 heads. I get alot of dreamers but no takers. I only want $200 the pair and I cant get rid of them for anything. I mean, you cant get a set machined/rebuilt for even close to that price.

it will take a long time to sell them.. and if they sell with springs, and all probably only like 100 shipped.

I'm watching a couple on ebay to see what they sell for... if it's more than $50, that's probably not a bad route. Will let you know when they sell!

I was lucky, my engine builder was desperate for 241's @ the time my 383 was being built....they gave me $600 for them towards the engine build. That was about 4 years ago tho. These days $100-150 is doing good.

I am looking for heads and would pay $100 shipped for complete and 241 heads with springs, retainers, good valves, etc... If your serious about selling yours send me a PM and we will see if we can work something out.
