They are just basic 350 heads, probably $100pr, if you can find anyone who wants them.

I've got my 624 heads in CL for sale for $100. So far, not even a nibble.

Take them down to your local marina, someone there may be looking for a boat anchor.

spray them with oil, throw them in a plastic bag in the attic and pull them out in 30 years. One of the NCRS guys will give you a few grand for them since everyone else scrapped their originals

Or e-bay for $50

If cast iron heads for a 350 small block Chevy are that hard to find in 30 years, imagine how hard the block itself will be to find. But if you want to wrap them up and trip over them for the next 30 years have at it.

I am thinking just posting them on craigs list for $125.00-$150.00 their has to be some fool out their that will pay $75-$100 and thimk the are getting some awesome parts just because they came off a vette. Beats taking up room in the garage.

I have had my 624's on CL for 10 months for $99. Once someone googles 624 heads they see that they are probably the worst of the worst heads that GM ever put on a small block!!! I am still tripping over mine in the garage, guess I should take them to the scrap yard one of these days!

PAY IT FORWARD.....offer them up for free to anyone that will come get them. That way you'll be helping someone with small money that needs some help.
