Pulling 305 TPI out of 85 IROC to sell

Pulling my LB9 out to swap in LT1. I was going to yank of TPI to sell on ebay, however I am thinking of selling engine/ tranny as a whole with computer....
Do you think there is a market for this. Engine has 140k with a rebuild @ 100k. New computer also.700R is rebuilt also. Need a place that could crate up the motor for shipping. Any ideas ????
Thanks

Just sell the TPI w/computer on Ebay.I've heard that a complete TPI set-up fetches as much as $600-700. Selling the whole drive-train seems impractical, from the buyers point of view. High milege engines and transmissions can be had at junk-yards, for "pennies" and no S+H charges.
Hope that helps

That is one of my options. I am not sure about the 305. I will probably donate it or try to sell the Engine and Transmission seperately. The tranny is a rebuilt 700R that may fetch something on ebay.
