VN heads... how much?
i have a set of VN EFI heads here that came off a motor i was going to rebuild and i was wondering how much they would be worth. they ave been worked, but im not sure what was done, how much they flow, etc.
what i do know about them is that they have had some port work, they have double valve springs, and without measuring, it looks like they have L34 size valves (this is what my mechanic told me). the motor they came off made 320rwhp in a VL wagon with a trimatic and 2800rpm convertor. it had a crane 286 cam, anti pump lifters, .030" ACL 9.5:1 flat top pistons, YT roller rockers, standard manifold (that had been de-burred for more flow), and obvously, the above mentioned heads. i know they obviously need a reco, but i was still wondering how much they would be worth if i was to sell. here are some pics of the heads...

u wanna buy them Mark
 i forgot to mention in the 1st post... i was told the motor had 10.5:1 compression. if someone makes me a good offer ill take it. otherwise ill just pack them back into the shed and wait til something comes up. i was planning on using them on my motor, but i have changed plans and they are no good to me. i need low compression...

Pumba, it's not good news
Honestly, they're worth about $150-300 with $300 being absolute top dollar. VN style heads have dropped in price a lot over the last year or two. you can buy a brand new set, complete for under $1600 and bare for $800. Depending on condition, you might like to evaluate whether you want to sell them or not

Not sure If I am just seeing things, but would have these heads run on GAS/LPG at sometime as those valves look awefully recessed into the heads , and therefore all valves and seats and possibly guides are STUFFED . As Wabbit has said $150 to $200
