Default Re: 427 head questions...

Hello everyone,
I have come across a set of 074 heads that look to have some cracks in the water jacket areas . Any idea what i should offer this guy for them? I will call my machine shop monday on what it will take to fix these, I just figured the castings were worth something. They are dated 10/69 .Thanx for any help with this question.

Over the past year most sets I have seen are ~$1,500-$1,800 for a fresh set and $1000 - $1200 for a set needing a valve job. I picked up a pair for $600 which were bare and needed new guides, but were not cracked or ported. Based on my experience, I'd say something less than $500.
