Default YB COSWORTH ENGINE ( low mileage )

I’ve got a 205 block Cosworth engine
it has covered 54000 miles and was removed from the car a few years ago and stored away properly
it has never been rebuilt and everything is standard size
The engine is completely standard
it has everything there
head is off for any inspection
I’m thinking of putting it up for sale for £5000
Does this sound a fair price ?

I’ve seen them in ebay
But ​​​​​​​surely an unmolested original engine is worth a bit more

Heads go for around 1k that leaves you with bottom end my mountune bottom end rebuilt to 500 spec went for 2900 that was a 200 block, would you pay 4k for a std 205 bottom end that hasnt been rebuilt? You could get a a 205 and rebuild it for less than 4k that's all I'm saying I've been buying and selling yb,s a good while now and tbh what people are asking is abit of a joke and they dont sell I'd just put it on bay with a realistic reserve
