Fair price for a used head?

Post by callahanoffroad »

As it says, what is a fair price for a used head?

I'm going to be rebuilding my head this summer but I can't have a weeks worth of down time on the car. So the obvious solution was to pickup a second one.

I found a few on car-part for $72 which is about what I was wanting to spend. :D
