pricing about some bridgeported irons

i have a friend who has irons that are bridgeported and says he'll give them to me for 600 just wondering if anyone would consider this a good deal or what i should offer him? i really have no idea what pricing should be for it, thanks.

I wouldnt pay that much for those housings unless it included rotors, e-shaft, all seals and the aluminum housings to match. All would have to be in near perfect condition.

Perfect condition means brand new, never used. Otherwise, best you can get is "Like new" condition.

2 irons, or all 3, i.e.. 1/2 or full bridge. If you can't port yourself, then they are not overpriced. I know of a well known builder that charges 600 to street port, bridges are more and they plan on raising prices. Irons not included.

Like Has been said. Are the plates new? Lapped? Well with in spec? How thick is the bridge? what was it first purpose? Who did the work?

Most engine builders will not just port. They will port as part of a build.
