I've got a 350 TPI that I pulled out of my 89 Formula for sale, but I really need to find out what it is realistically worth.

The engine itself was running when we pulled it, but it is in need of an overhaul (very high mileage). If I were to sell just the long block as is, what would be a fair price?

I also need to know what the top end is worth. I've had several people offer to buy the complete TPI setup (without the long block), but so far I have refused each offer. Isn't this system worth serveral hundred dollars or more? I'm getting offers of $150-$200 for EVERTHING (wiring harness included)! I'm about to throw it all up on EBAY, 'cause I'm sure I've seen this stuff sell for more on there. Am I right, or am I way off base about what this stuff is actually worth? If all I'm gonna get is a couple hundred bucks, I'll just keep it all for a future project!

Finally, I also have a 305 long block (69k miles) we pulled from my 97 K1500 (replaced with a 350). While I doubt the block itself is worth anything to anyone, it IS a Vortec engine; How much are the Vortec heads that are on it worth?

Thanks in advance,
Adam

 

The complete TPI setup w/ the ecm, harness, and sensors should go for around $400. That is complete tho, and if people are lowballing you, just turn them down. I sold a complete setup for about the price I quoted you, but I had to sort through all of the crap e-mails from people offering $50-200. I don't think you will have too much of a problem selling it for that much, if you are patient.
