Default Engine & Trans Valuation?

I purchased a 1966 C2 last year that came with a 1968 327/350 and Muncie 4-speed. I’m curious what a fair market value is for the engine with alternator, power steering pump, Vintage AC and all brackets, a FITECH fuel injection or Holley carb setup, the trans has no leaks, new shift fork seals and oil, and includes the shifter and linkage and driveline if wanted. Everything as it sits in the chassis. Has a rumpity rumpity cam. Miles are unknown but ran great for the 400 miles I drove it last spring before I took the body off. I’m replacing it with a dart 427 sb and TKX 5-speed. Again, just looking for what it’s worth. I have a running video but it’s too large to post here. Photos below. Thank you in advance for your input!
Don

If I was in the market, I'd prolly offer you $5K for the package.

Nor trying to offend, could be worth much more, but could be a risky buy. Good luck.

I appreciate your input and was thinking it was probably worth $5k so that is encouraging.

That does look real nice. Having all the pulleys and brackets helps in my book. Probably will take some time to get $5000 for it. Asking less would help move it faster. You can always come down later if you have more time. GL
