If you were willing to do a compression and leakdown test and post pictures along with the build information you would make it easier to sell. Unfortunately I would guess it's probably $7-12k depending on the right buyer who wants a smaller displacement engine.
Interesting thoughts... It might not appeal to the BaT RSR / Backdate Clientele but it definitely would appeal to the traditional long hood / 914 contingent... 200hp is more than enough for most street hot rods.

You are right Price is highly contingent on condition......
