Currently on car, no idea what brand or what they are worth. I want to go with HE's and running motor I am looking at has HE's!

(not looking forward to dropping this ugly oily mess of a motor and transmission)

Those look close to European headers... I had a nice similar set I underpriced and posted a year or two ago for 400 and had guys climbing all over to get them...

They had stubs with flanges that bolted to the heads, then the headers bolted to the flanges. It was easy and quick to get them on and off. Apparently that’s what made them really desireable. Do some searches before posting for 100, i think they might be worth more...

Edit, found link for what I had:

I can’t tell from your pics. Do they have separate stub pipes?

They look like Kerry hunters but kh do not have stub pipes

The collector on the Eurorace headers is on the passenger side, these look more like Kerry hunters.

Those look like Kerry Hunter headers to me. Very similar to a set I sold 5 years ago for $250. However on yours someone decided to weld the pipes to the 4 into 1 collector, they are supposed to be a slip fit. I would think this would make it harder/more expensive to ship (oversize). It also may cause some additional work to install on another engine.

No stub pipes.... PO says he had to weld up many small holes so it might just end up in the recycling bin at home.

If there's no holes, I think they'd probably be worth $250 -300.
If they had stub pipes and a good muffler, $400+
If they had stub pipes and were jet hot or otherwise coated $500
If they were polished stainless $600+

Just new stub pipes cost $200
