What's it worth?

I was contemplating a horsepower upgrade in an rv-7. I wanted to know if there might be much demand if selling a complete firewall forward of an O-320 150 hp lycoming with fixed pitch metal sensenich prop approx 750 hrs smoh at factory. It would include everything including baffles, alternator, oil cooler etc. Ready to go. If so, any ballpark guesses how much that might sell for?
Thanks.

That’s pretty much exactly the setup I bought from a fellow VAFer also doing an upgrade. 150hp with sensenich prop. 750 smoh but 0 since new cylinders. I paid $14kish I believe. Mine did not include baffles, hoses , or oil cooler. But did include all engine mounted accessories (starter, alternator, mags).

Just a note, if you do decide to sell it, you might leave it on the plane until you have it sold so a potential buyer can see it run, perform compression tests etc.
