I think personally keep it, unless you obviously don't need it.

Do you have a 200 Block in the 3dr now?.

So I should ask 1k for it then it's never been bored, no lips at all and the face is mint it's perfect for a big build I was going to get it built but decided against it as losing the love for the car now

For a big build you need a Block that has been heat cycled for a long period of time. It will then need to be linered so paying 1k for a lightly used Block aint what you require for a big build.
