They are what they are, similar to the likes of a 305......turbos do not discriminate what are your intensions for this engine since it is unclear to me. Are you looking at resale potential?

The crank, rods and intake manifold have value. The opti-spark dizzy might, if it's '95-'96. You probably won't get $350 for all of that.
