Used Headers for 500EFI
Anyone know what a set of used 500EFI headers goes for these days? No rust inside, small leak at the top weld.
I was advised to repair it, but decided to replace with new. I checked the marketplace to get an idea, but didn't see any used 500efi headers listed. |
They are worthless unless you can verify that they are 100% repairable.
500EFI headers are just CMI E tops. |

500EFI headers are just CMI E tops. Last time I checked they were fetching $2500-3000 each new. To answer the OP's question I have seen used ones that didn't need repair for 1500-2000 for a set. If I were you I'd get them repaired then sell. Buyers will beat you up over price. |
Cmi will repair them for 150 bucks. Have them repaired and you'll sell easier

you make it sound like cmi e-tops are garbage...I haven't heard any issues with them on 500's. The 525's were a different story.

What I was trying to say is that they need to verified as repairable. If they are not repairable, then they are not worth anything and are huge gamble for a buyer. |

Best of both worlds, long lasting aluminum manifolds with header performance.

^^^ winner. I would stay away from headers, not worth the gamble and they will eventually crack. Like Diamond says above, good, safe, and reliable manifold with long runners/equal length.
I agree not as sexy, but sexier than a 'sploded engine. |
