Default Value of? 968 Head, Computers, and a few other bits

Well with the plans to sell the 968 motor back in full effect I have been getting offers for parts of the motor instead of the motor as a whole. And while selling the motor complete is the easiest way to go for me, I feel that pulling the motor apart could yeild a nice stash of parts for me to keep (968 block, crank and rods).

Anyway, could any put a ball park value on:

968 Head, cam cover, etc
Computers (DME, Vario-Cam)
Harness
Pistons
Bell Housing (w/clutch)
Torque Tube
6-Speed ($2,500, the one part I know the price on)

Now I was thinking someone with an S2 could pick up the Head, computers, harness, bell housing, torque tube and 6-speed and have 944 S3 with out much fuss.

Also, if someone with an S2 wanted to make me an offer on the parts that would be fine too....

Come on pete, this is the opportunity you need to get a full 968 driveline under the hood.....

Get the 968 6 speed now as well and sell your S2 unit to Tifo (he needs a nice transmission).......

I know, I know! The timing is just bad for me right now. My employment picture is getting dim and I have to put the mortgage money ahead of new toys for the car.
These damn grown up responsibilities are a pain, but what can you do?

Understood, are there any other tempted 944 S2 Owners out there? Or anyone that wants the 16V head, computers, etc?

The responsibilities in life do often get in the way of our fun, but if it was easy for me to build up my dream cars then it wouldn't be as rewarding
