$1,700 is a low offer, for just the engine & that work I'd say ok... BUT... XP cam, springs and no new chain or double chain? Hmmmmm... Nice motor but with a weak link or you just forgot to list it?
Otherwise, someone who knows what all the parts cost would see a steal @ $1,700, let alone for the tranny and exhaust too.
You won't get reimbursed for your time, so forget that. That only happens if someone asks you to do what you did. As mentioned, NEW, you'd get more for the parts, now they're all assembled you'd get much less if parted out, add time for shipping and such. It's a tough decision... It's sad to see you give up on such a great project. But to each his own! I'd say $2,200-$2,500 for all three.
