Selling a pair of used headers and 2 y pipes for the 2.8, 3.1, 3.4 iron head v6s.

The headers have been jet hot coated. The coating is chipped away where the primaries meet the flange, but they are not rusted out. I looked over them pretty well, and could not find any pinholes or cracks.

One y pipe appears to have been repaired at some point. Welds are not particularly pretty, but it looks to me to be solid. The other y pipe is uncoated, so has surface rust. Solid other than one tiny chip in the down pipe flange. Buy one, buy the other, buy both.

Im open to serious offers. Im not trying to get rich, but these are a rare piece that dont come up in good shape very often. Lowball offers will be ignored. Theyll sit on my shelf before i sell them for $100. Will ship at buyers expense, or local pickup in vermont or new hampshire.

Shipping is going to suck. I'd box them up and get an idea of how much it will cost to ship first. Sometimes shipping puts the price out of range folks are willing to pay. i have a set of stock manifolds, I tried to sell for $50, but shipping is almost $30 and no one wants to pay $80 bucks for a pair of rusty, stock manifolds. Give the buyer some idea of what shipping is going to be so they can offer you something.

I'd also suggest putting a price on them. Most folks will just pass when you don't list a price. Saying you wont take $100 for them makes me think that your offers will come in close but over $100. Those are not $200 dollar headers in used condition.

Thanks. Yes, shipping wont be inexpensive. Its unfortunately entirely dependant on location, but i can say expect close to $100.

Based on original price, condition, rarity, and past sales they would seem to me to be worth $500-700. I had someone tell me $100. I had an offer of $200 and one $400 on marketplace. Crickets here so far. Everybody wants to chime in and say theyre cool, but not much real interest. I may throw them up on ebay. They may just go back in the collection. I dont need them, but i dont want to kick myself down the road. This is the first set ive come across 12 years of being into fieros, and theyre in good shape. Short answer is id probably consider offers north of $500.

I have a set FOCOA headers and they were the best available for the stock V6.
Jet Hot can bead blast and recoat them to make them look like new.

To tell the truth offers north of $500 based on the condition is probably not realistic considering that is will cost around 300-400 to clean them up fix the welds and ceramic coat them. I’ll be at not seen sets that are all ready to install with a fresh coat of ceramic sell for north of 500. Your probably at 200-300 in my opinion.

If I understand right a brand new never used set with the ego tube taken off, jet hot coated would be easy worth over $500.00?
