...Used Vortec Heads.....Ideas?

First off.....I don't have them, nor am I planning on dropping the coin on them for myself...although the idea did cross my mind a couple of times!!!!

But does anyone have any idea as to what they would go for on the used market. They are complete and in very good shape, off a very low mileage engine (less than 5,000 Km I believe).

Ideas as to what my buddy could get for them?????

Vortec

Rudy Held had a used set sitting in his shop there about a month ago, I think they were going for around $750.00 but I am not 100% sure. I know they werent much higher anyways.

They are complete and are almost new...approx 3,000 km on them. I don't think there is an intake, but I will check with my buddy. PM me if you want more details....I will be posting them online here probably friday.
