Question What is it worth? 99 LQ4 Fresh from machine shop

Fresh 99 LQ4 picking it up from the machine shop 4-25-2020
Hot tanked
Polished std crank
New Cam Bearings
New crank Bearings
New Rod Bearings
New Piston rings
Stock rods
Stock pistons
Stock Cam
ARP main hardware
ARP rod bolts
Aluminum 317 heads a little cleaned up in the pockets only valves no other hardware.
I have a bunch of new parts still in the boxes a few weeks old and newer that i would take a 5% loss on.
Melling 10295
Summit billet double roller timing chain
LS9 head gaskets
Summit rockers with upgraded trunnions
LS7 Lifters
ARP head bolts
Reason for wanting to know what this is worth is.
I got offered an LS1 with a bunch of mods low miles in a running car.
Trying to decide on picking up the LS1 VS keeping the LQ4 and finishing the build.
I wanted to build a 1k hp engine (eventually with better pistons and rods) but after playing with my other car making 500hp +/- a few hp i realize I don't need the 1k hp i wanted.

I’d keep what you have. You know what’s been done and how fresh everything is.
