Has anyone else noticed that used aftermarket parts availabilty has gone up quite a bit? And has anyone noticed that parts sales seem to be way off?

I see longtube headers for sale and there are zero replies. OF course, in many cases, owners are asking 80-90% of retail. They must be smoking crack.

Camshafts and heads are in abundant supply ... but again, way over priced for used parts.

It appears that the mod market might be drying up a tad for this platform. Stands to reason ... it's been out of production for 2 1/2 years. I just find it interesting that parts are becoming more abundant, both retail and used, yet the costs are not coming down.

It's insane how much people will PAY for used LT1 headers too. (IMG:http://www.frrax.com/rrforum/style_emoticons/default/rolleyes.gif)

Another case in point ...

I bought a set of new, 1 piece, 16x8, American Eagle, cast alloy wheels with a polished finish on them for my 2500HD for $425 delivered with chrome centercaps and gorilla lugs.

A similar set for an F-Body would be twice that, at least.
