Default LS1 Heads

I bought a 1998 Z28 today and the guy that sold me the car threw in some brand new LS1 heads never touched/installed. Completely brand new from the factory. I was thinking about porting them but I think I want to just sell them. I'm VERY new to LS1's (had lt1 in the past) and I don't really know how much stock LS1 heads are sold for. So if you could throw me out an offer I'd appriciate it. Keep in mind they are brand new with 0 miles on them. Please don't lowball because of my lack of LS1 knowledge

Thanks!

Those are early 98 perimeter valve cover bolt heads.. Your likely not gonna get much for them unless you can find someone with a 97 vette or 98 Camaro/TA

Its a 3 digit number, usually stamped on front of the driver's side head, above the exhaust manifold, right under the valvecover surface, above the coolant temp sensor..

not trying to be an ******* but if you can't find it please ask people through pm's or make a post in the ls1 motor section. This thread is for people who want to buy my heads if anyone even does.

Thank you

The number is on the top left side just under the valve cover (black thing) Sorry about being too blurry. I was focusing on the leak around the freeze plug.

Damn, you're awefully touchy towards people trying to help you out.. The heads you have arent in high demand since only the 97-98 year cars used them. You might as well keep them and have someone port them for you're own car..
