Default What is a good price for ls6 heads

I have a friend who is selling a brand new set of LS6 heads with yellow springs.. the heads were never installed and he will throw in brand new bolts and gaskets. he is also selling an LS6 cam and i was thinkin about buying it to sell to someone on here (not even looking for a profit) what are they worth? what do you think would be a good price to offer for the heads/gaskets/bolts? what about for the heads/cam/gaskets/bolts?

thanks guys

well they go used for around 500 bucks, so if these are brand new add a couple hundred to it.

the cam isnt worth much maybe 50 bucks.

why dont you find out how much he wants for it before you tell him what you will give him

You can get fully ported new ones from Texas Speed with those springs for around 1000 I think. I bought mine used for 675 but they came with double springs already. If they are just stock with stock springs I would not pay more than 600 because if you plan on getting a cam then you will need to buy springs anyways which will be anywhere between 200-300 dollars.

1125 for the cnc'd heads from TSP. plus shipping. I would say for the heads, gaskets and bolts look in the ball park of less than 750? Going at that price your saving yourself 400 on top of getting gaskets and bolts...
