I have complete U20 engine and trans that was pulled from my mother in laws rusted out 1969 roadster. It ihas low mileage with around 60k. I took the valve cover off and everything looks great and I can turn the engine by hand. My father in-law kept this as a spare setup (as well as the rest of the car) for his car and it has been sitting for quite some time now. The set up is complete with fan, water pump, emissions fittings, starter, header, SU intake, clutch assembly, flywheel, and trans. My question is it better to sell this as a whole unit or should I part it out. My main concern I guess would be the shipping and my options for selling. I would be limited to being local if I were to sell as a single unit. Not sure what to do, but I need more space in my garage so It is going to have to go one way or the other.

You could donate it to me and send it my way.
Since I have no spares currently and the racing budget is now empty (more or less) I don't have any $ to buy it or have it shipped. But, if it arrived on my front porch, it would be out of your hair and you wouldn't have to worry about it anymore.
I know that doesn't help you in one bit.
