Default Are my old "ramhorns" worth anything?

I saved the stock exhaust manifolds after installing my headers. They are in good shape.

There is no use for me to keep them, as the engine isn't original.

Are they worth anything?

Rams horns are very good stock manifolds. I'd put them on bay. Someone will buy them. OR you might want to keep them in case you want to switch back to stock someday.

Hang on to them... later on you may wish you still had them.

Don't throw anything away! You never know when you will need the old parts and if you throw them away or sell them I guarantee it will cost you twice that to replace them later.

Sold my '74 set at a local car show/swapmeet for ~$30. Only took an hour or less to sell there. They had the smog injection holes (plugged) too. :cheers:

I kept mine, as if I ever decide to sell they can have the original manifolds as well.

I have always been told dirt track racers want them and pay good.

Sell them. If they/the engine aren't original, why would you ever want to put them back on something? You should be able to get very close to enough to buy a set of headers for them if they are in good shape.

Have them sand or bead blasted, and put them away nice and clean. Even used ones are going for $60.00 apiece, and it's better to offer a perspective buyer all the stock parts when you go to sell.
