Parting Out a 1985 corvette 5.7TPI Engine

im currently restoring my 85 vette and ive decided to put an ls1 in there and figured since you guys on this forum have always been so much help id offer the parts here first. anywho, as stated the engine is a 350 tpi from a 1985 corvette with 101000 miles. im starting with all the intake parts but more will be available as i take the engine further apart. currently i have:

SLP intake runners powdercoated "blast aluminum" $295
aluminum distributor powdercoated "blast aluminum" $25
thermostat housing powdercoated "blast aluminum" $20
distributor hold down clamp powdercoated "blast aluminum" $3
fuel rail with pressure regulator, polished $40
fuel rail with adjustable fuel pressure regulator $50
egr valve, new 2 years ago $15
ford racing 24# blue top fuel injectors (8), rebuilt by jon at fic less than a month ago (sheet included) $200

i think thats all i have for now but ill keep updating when i get more off and available. just some notes, the distributor cover and thermostat housing are basically new, about 500 miles on em. i have 2 different fuel rails so the two up there are different ones. the transmission is a 700r4 and was rebuilt about 1000 miles ago, should still have receipt, that will be $500 (and of course has corvette servos in it). The engine when i get it out will be another $500 which includes the heads and i also JUST replaced the head gaskets with fel pro gaskets before i decided to go with an ls1. engine always held a good 60psi while running. i also have the exhaust manifolds, but i doubt thatd be any use to anyone with a camaro but if interested please ask. phew, i think thats all for now please feel free to pm or post offers or questions, im willing to negotiate prices. and for those wondering i was gonna rebuild/port the top end of this engine but decided for the same amount of work i could have an ls1 instead
