Big Block heads

Can someone tell me what a used set of cast big block oval port, closed chamber heads are worth. The casting numbers say they are from a 1966 396-427. I also have a stock cast intake also. Anything you can tell me would be great Thanks

Get the casting numbers from the heads and intake and "Google" them.
Most probably someone has sold the stuff on E/Bay in the past..
It'll at least give you a starting poiny!

The cast iron intake isn't worth much, but the heads might bring a couple hundred if they're in decent shape. More if professional valve seat and/or port work w/paperwork, new parts throughout, fresh valve job, etc..

At the top of each forum page is a link to the free classified section. You could put them there with "best offer", to see what they'll bring. Include the casting numbers AND date!! A restorer will be looking for both, equally important.
