Default what are these parts worth?

hey guys,

i have a torn apart 4.6 in my garage... my mechanic says its good to go, but i'm parting it out because of the history i have with the mechanic and engine block for that matter, i put out an ad in the FS section but i didnt receive any replies that lead to a sale.... what should i be asking for these parts.... since i have a running engine... i dont need these!!!

-referb. cylinder heads, guides were replaced and valve job done, less than 100 miles on these heads after rebuild.

-crank, rods and pistons (new pistons, referb rods and crank) rods are 10 over, crank is 20 over.. less then 100 miles after rebuild

-rocker arm assemblies (new) less than 100 miles after rebuild.

-block is a 2003 in VIN range, front cover dowel pins pulled, liners are okay, cam bearings were replaced... engine was reassembled and then i took it apart.

i'd ship everything.... what are fair prices, since you guys are the types that are gonna buy these things

You need to look up these parts new and used and go from there.
Personally I would put it back together and sell the whole thing, you will get more for it that way.
I dont think anyone will but these parts, the heads yes, the block yes, but the rest...I'd buy brand new because I dont know you from Adam.

Otherwise load the whole thing in the back of your truck and take it to the scrap yard, they'll give you $100 or so for it, especially with the block and heads being aluminum.

If the price was right I would buy the block to make a coffee table out of.

Lansing is only a hour or so from me.
I just got back from Ionia getting my new roof rack.
I traded my DII SD rack for a DI SD rack.

Yes I need a DI alt, $50 is a good deal.

That is one of my fav vid's.
