Value of a Rebuilt 4020 Engine

I have a motor from a 68 4020 that I'm thinking about putting up for sale. I was gonna use it for a project to repower a gas 4020 or similar project but I don't think I will ever get around to it--considering all my other projects. Curious what it might be worth. I had it completely overhauled, using a high compression engine kit, I also sent the injection pump out and had it freshened up and set at 10% over stock. We even bypassed the crank ventilator. It is ready to fire. In addition, it also has a fairly new deere reman clutch on it (not cheap). Plus it has both manifolds, starter, alt, water pump, fan blade, new filters ect. Like I said, it is ready to install and go to work. The only thing it doesn't have is a tractor bolted to it. I know what I have in the parts and labor, but what might a guy begin to ask for it? Could pull the clutch if needed to separate it some.
 
The best way to get your money back would be to buy a nice 4020 gas and do an engine swap. You would only need a few linkage parts in the dash to be 100% correct. Tom

Yes I know but I haven't been able to locate one that I like for a decent price. Plus right now I don't have the room or the time to fool with it. So that is my delimma.
 
New Gen I bought a nice 68 4020 that had a complete M&W kit and 4320 fenders for $9K put back to stock with correct fenders and sold it for $9K.Just the rebuild itself plus clutch and pump would be well over $10K at JD.As nice as your work is I would rather have it as a reman.I have bought tractors that had bills in hand that exceded the purchase price.I would see what a reman costs plus your extras and go from there.
