How to sell a 2.3T setup

I am in possession of a 2.3 turbo engine, T-5 trans, and ECU/harness. The engine is disassembled as I was planning to build it for a future project. It is in excellent condition and the only reason I would even put new bearings/rings in it is because it has been taken apart.
I ended up buying a 2001 V-6 and so I won't be using the parts and was wondering if I should bother redoing it or leaving it apart before selling it. I see both sides of it. One person may want a good chance to throw other parts in or just do it themselves. Plus they may not trust a home builder to have done a decent job. On the other hand many might like to have an assembled engine intake to oil pan ready to drop in. It does have a freshly redone turbo (never even installed), and I would like to get as much for it as I can while not ripping anyone off. Should I even bother assembling it or leave it and sell it as is?

Leave it as is, where are you at, and how much you want for it?

I ask because I Want it depending on your price and the cost of shipping. I'm working on putting my 81 back together for a daily and this would save me from rebuilding the I4 I have in the back yard as well as searching for a trans for it since I tossed mine.

So, how much ya want and do you have some pics? Seriously interested here.

Anyone have a clue as to how much I should ask either way? I can't this complete of a setup anywhere to use as a reference (short of a whole donor car). I have everything from the cooling fan to the clutch. I mean everything. K&N filter, vane meter, sensors, injectors (brown top), harness, top mount intercooler, even the plugs and wires from when it last ran. The block has never been bored, nor the crank cut. I would do the normal redo stuff (hone, journal polish, ect.), but it needs nothing else. Heck, the clutch looks brand new. Just wondering what it is worth.

Anyhow...I'm going to poke around as well and see what they are going for other places and see if I Can't shoot you some links.

You've been a great help. After I'm done checking, you might end up with a deal. Just want to be fair on both ends. You do know how much the shipping alone on what may be 500# + will be right?:lol:
