74' 454 Engine parts value? Help

I have several parts off my 49,000 mile 1974 Mark IV engine.. Im trying to figure out value so I can fairly price them for sale...or keep.

The the only thing I am keeping/using is the block itself.

Unlikely their sale will allow you to retire early but it would be a lot better if you listed what you have.

Except for the crank, those parts would have value to a restoration but they'd need to be original numbers to an '74 LS-4 and not replacements. When you list the heads, intake, starter, and carb, include not only the part number but the date code. The distributor should have an aluminum band with # around the housing just above where it's clamped down. The coil should have a debossed number on the side. All of these things will get you more $ than if you don't include the details.

The crank isn't worth as much because it's not a visible part.
