What is a fair price to ask for these?

I have a block that has been cleaned, honed, and painted that I am planning to sell. It does have one or two spots that are slightly pitted. They are barely discernable with the fingernail. I am willing to crate it and ship it if someone can use it. I also have a rebuildable head with cams, etc. There is also a set of injectors with wiring and intake plenum. I am not sure what the other stuff in the pics (attached) are and if they are worth anything to someone. I am not going for the high dollar, but would like to get a fair price for these items. Thanks

My questions is if they are pitted why did you not have the shop bore it slightly to remove any pitting before the hone? I would have. Otherwiese it's worth a couple hundred I guess. Would it include the crank? If it's just block I would say it's worth $250 ish.

My son did the hone job himself. I think he thought that the spots would hone out. The pic shows the worst of the only two spots that are pitted in the entire engine. Any ideas on the value of the other parts I want to sell?

Do you have the cam caps for the head? In your picture they are not there. I wouldn't buy it without those simply because putting ones from another head on could still require it to be aligned and bored since they may no longer be straight with the cams you know what I mean? Do you have the internals for the head either? I see no valves or springs or buckets. The head without those, but with caps would be worth around $100 if it's not warped out of use. With those I'd say around $150. With cams add another $30-$40.

Your other parts are basically whatever conditoon the yare in, and what a person offers but if I was selling them I'd go:
CPS: $50 ( I can see the orange sealer around it which turns me off so I lowered the price a bit)
Stock BOV: $10
That ISC valve I think it's called:$15
Coils:$30
Oil pump DS: $12
Rear main seal: $10
Intake runners: $12
Injectors: $40
Fuel rail: $12
Harness (complete?) Complete:$70-80 Incomplete:$30

Well the big hing is the head is a 7m, and so it would be fair to say the block is awell. not to mention the starter plate is cast into the jz block, and not a seperate shet of steel like on the 7M block. And if that isn't enough, the oil filter mount on the jz is on the driver's side, and clearly in that pic you see it on the passenger side, meanign it's an M series block.
I hope that helps :icon_bigg

I have everything for the head including cam caps, valves, followers and shims, springs, cams. It came off a car that had a head gasket problem. I am quite sure tht it is not warped bad at all. Injector harness is what you see in pic.
