I am gonna be selling stuff off of the old set-up and it will all be on Ebay. What I am wanting to know is how you guys think I should sell it. Should I sell the stuff all together or piece it out. I am thinking piece it out to make the most money but it would be nice to let it go as package and only have to mess with one auction

You pretty much came up with the options: convenience vs. making most of your money back. Which is more important? You can always try to sell the whole collection of (whatever it is) for a high price and see if anyone bites. That might be worth a shot too.

I was trying to avoid that so this thread didn't get mistaken for a sales ad. Here is a generic list: upper and lower intake, fuel rails, fuel injectors, mass air meter, throttle body, cam. Pretty much everything above the heads. The long block is already spoken for.

Thats a thought I had over looked. Which is to throw it together as a collection with a "buy it now" price to see what happens. I was just stuck on the auction idea. If it doesn't sell as a buy it now, then piece it out.

If you put it on ebay you can list it at "$X" and let bidders submit offers to you. Then you can see what you like!

Yeah. your right, it couldn't hurt. I have sold quite a bit in our classifieds with good experiences but with some things that are a bit more expensive I would rather do it through something that is a little more safer from the point of a potential customer, like Ebay. Not saying I wouldn't sell it thorugh here but I built a good rep through Ebay with a 100% feedback rating.

I do know that once I have listed it I will post the links in the classifieds.

Thanks for the comments guys and keep the opinions coming.
