Default Good price or getting ripped?(D16Y8 head)

I'm looking into buying a 99 Civic EX head and putting it on my '00 LX. The head has 3200 miles on it, has ferrea tit. valves, springs, and retainers, ported and polished and a 5 angle job. Head also comes with intake manifold and TB. Also for sale with it is a crane cam(#252-0010) and a skunk2 cam gear. Let me know what you think of these prices? Low or High?

D16Y8 built head - $700
Crane Cam - $400
Cam Gear - $50
EX ecu and harness - $180

Total - $1330

Although those are some nice parts, I still won't pay that much. You could have turbo for that much, and be faster !

I'll look into both of those questions. Crucial, the dude that I am buying it from is close to miami so maybe you'll know the shop.

He said that he didn't get a chance to dyno it after it was done. He said that he felt a huge difference though.

That's an awful lot of buildup for 3200 miles... :eh:

Or the pics are just crappy. :dunno:
