depends. I Just sold an unassembled set for 50 bucks because i couldn't get rid of them for the life of me.

I sold a set of 462's, assembled in running condition for $250.

They really aren't worth much to anyone other than someone who wants an all original/numbers matching or a stocker class or maybe circle track guys who are stuck with stock heads.

I see them go for 250ish rebuilt. I have a set rebuilt i am selling, i like to hit the guys up that hear about the almighty camel heads and sell them to them. They are not bad for a little BS motor or somthing with port work on them. They dont hold a candle stick to Vortec heads. I have some 1970 LT1 heads i am fixing to use, i hear those are in demand for some reason, atleast thats what my machine shop sais. They are factory angle plug heads, go figgure...

As mentioned above, they aren't a bad head but usually are not even close to the workings/flow characteristics of today's aftermarket heads. I swapped from a set of 2.02/1.60 valve 461 castings to a mildly ported set of Dart Sportsman heads (back in 1996) and gained 3 tenths in the 1/4.
