Should I buy these?

Found some LT1 ported heads for sale. Here's the specs.

Reverse cooled cast-iron professionally ported heads. 2.02 intake. 1.600 exhaust valves. Fully ported exhaust ports. Intake ports are slightly ported and shaped. 3 angle valve job, new seals, new double springs setup for hydraulic roller cam @ .550 lift. Standard retainers and keepers. Excellent shape. About 50 lbs. each.

The price is $600 but I think I can get them cheaper. Is this a bad or good deal? and How much could I sell my stock heads for?

The cast iron heads were the Impala/Fleetwood heads. They're not the aluminum f-body pieces. They'll weigh about 60 lbs heavier.

2.02 / 1.60 are large valves.

If the flow works, then iron heads would be the way to go. Its my understanding iron heads are preferrable to port.
