I amjust curious what you guys have seen these fo for, & or what you have given for them in the past.

I'll start it off by saying about 6 years back I bought a set of ECZ-G's that were complete, not virgin, but decent machine work off of E-Bay for 200 bucks. More than I wanted to, but the seller was local so I did,kt have to worry about shipping.(Pre-craig's list days for me)

I think that you just answered your own ouestion, "LOCATION", a $200 dollar set of heads becomes $300 + if you have to pay shipping, plus you can look at them before you pay. I've bought a lot of stuff off ebay, but I don't think I would buy heads without having them checked first. Just my opinion though, I know alot of people must be buying them judging by the ebay prices and paying the shipping. I have seen them go for upwards of $400 on ebay, but I have sold to members for $150. I've never bought just heads, I try to buy complete engines for $100/$250 depending on what it is in and condition, but they are getting harder to find.

I paid 300 plus shipping for mine about a year ago. They were in pristine condition too. Shipped from Alabama. I felt it was a good deal.

Seems to me that whether the heads cost $200 or $300 is almost a moot point. They will need; hard seats, valve guides, new valves, springs, porting, and milling, so it ends up being $1100 vs. $1200.



You can probably get away with skipping some of this, but in the end you get what you pay for.
