Default What to do with the stock stuff??

Got a quick question for you all. I recently had my Kooks headers, Catted-y and SLP LM put on. They speed inc shop said my stock headers, y and muffler CB system were all in great shape and they said I should sell it. My question to you all is.

1. How much should I sell it for (seperate and all together?)

I would keep it just in case something happens to your car. You can sell the mods.

As this gent states it would be easier and more profitable in most cases to keep it just in case you ever sell the car or trade it in for another one. Happy holidays to you and yours.

Judging by your username, I'm guessing you have a Firehawk? If so, you should have had an SLP dual/dual system stock, which would in fact be worth some $$$ to sell. On the other hand, stock manifolds/cats/Y are basically without value. There is nothing special or valuable about the exhaust components forward of the Y-pipe on a Firehawk, it's the same as any other V8 F-body (other than some minor changes for certain model years).

Wow, you did good. Every time I've tried to sell stock exhaust parts there has been little to no interest. Guess you just need to find someone that's going back to stock and doesn't have the stuff.
