430 heads needed or early 455's.

  1. Hi...am in need of a set of 430 heads. hoping close to the montana side of the country. im actually in alberta, but have access to a montana mailing address to make shipping easier.
    still looking locally in canada and have no idea the price of shipping from the states, but might not matter if i can find a nice set. uncracked or damaged of course.
    might be leaning towards an early set of 455 heads as well..up to 1972, as im told they are a good swap. advice and opinions are welcome.
    thanks
    Rick

    I'm in Oregon - relatively close. I have a set of 69 430 heads that have been gone through by the machine shop. Hardened valve seats, all valves cleaned and/or replaced as necessary, tanked and fluxed. Ready to install. I've got over $200 in them but I'll let them go for $110 plus shipping. Also have a set of 68 400 cores and 70 non stage 455's. Both appear to be in good shape but have not been to the machine shop. $50 plus shipping per pair. Let me know.
     
  3. sent you an email. please check and lets try and get things going.
    cheers
