Shortblock price

Hey guys, I'm not sure if this is the right place but I'm looking for some help on an asking price for my old short block. It's out of my 02 SS and has a little over 32,000 miles on it but it does have a damaged piston(#7). I have since had a new motor built and want to sell this as is but have no idea what a fair asking price is. It has no covers or pan just the stock oil pump with it. Any input would be appreciated.

Maybe $4-500 considering all the stuff that has to be bought for it...miles are really only thing going for it, probably be better to part it out

What's the casting number on the back of the block? If it's a 12561168 block, you may get a little more out of it.

I bought a mint 40k LS6 for 1k. I sold an unassembled (no damaged parts) LS1 for about 300. Depending on the damage of the piston, maybe the 3-500 range. I've seen local longblocks running go for as little as 500 so its gonna be a tough sale to some people.
