how much would a set of bearings for a dura threaded headset run me?

ooooh man! is that steel? if so, you're a lucky duck, and you'll be needing looseball, high grade bearings. it's possible to get them in cages, but you'd have to match them to the cups, crown race and upper race.

You really dont need cages. Just pack them with grease and put the balls into the race. You want to have about 2 less balls than it being fully packed. Loose bearings are pretty cheap and the bike shop can help you pick the right size
