Thumbs up

I just checked the casting number on the heads I pulled off of my wife's 1992 GMC Typhoon and the number is :10144103 so they would be Sy/Ty correct casting numbers for a set that would have came on these trucks.

Most people upgrade to the L35 heads or Vortech...

Just wanted to let you know they are the right ones...

As any other used part it's going to be worth what someone is willing to pay for it.
I don't know how rare that casting is or how important it is to have that exact casting.
I am putting L35 heads on my wife's truck and leaving the stock heads sit.

My ball park guess would be 50-100.00 a head? Once again.. just depends on how rare that casting is.. might want to do some research on syty.org.

Hope that helps,
Scott~

The head isn't rare at all, in fact most 4.3 came with a version of this head until the L35 came out in mid 92.
