Stock exhaust worth
About to get Kooks headers installed. Is there a market for the OEM ones, or are they just a toss in the trash item? Same with the stock catalytic converters?

The cats and suitcase could have some $$$, locally, but if you have to ship something it's worth nothing as those costs with wreck the deal. It's quite frankly scrap metal. Ive offered up my ZL1 suitcase for free just have it picked up here and it's yours. No one takes me up on it.

Suitcase is already gone to the scrap yard a few years ago when I installed the AWE catback. I'm asking specifically about the OEM headers and attached 4 catalytic converters.

The cats are worth money in good condition.

Yes. I sold my stock manifolds and cats here on the forum. I think the cats go for about $400 to the scrap guy, Kevin something on here. So I sold my stock setup for I think $400-450 or something in that range.

Not bad at all. The two manifolds and two cat pipes (along with heat shields, bolts, etc.) fit perfectly into a Rotofab box I still had sitting in the garage. It was heavy of course, but the shipping wasn't terrible. I just asked the buyer to pay for actual shipping cost once I had it quoted.

Catalytic converters in good condition are worth like 400-800$.
I paid 800$ few weeks ago for both primary cats needed for inspection.
Mine were empty after track driving.

For clarity, I should add I only sold the primary cats. I didn't have the secondary cats (already gone when I bought the car). I think the secondaries go for about 80-100 each and the primaries are about 200-220 each on the scrap market.
