What is a FAIR price to ask for my BPT engine

Woah nice! Would be great for an MX5 1.8 swap.

The engine; stock internals or built?

Which RX7 gearbox? You using an adapter plate?

Unfortunately needs an mx5 oil pump and mx5 sump to clear the mx5 subframe.
So that won't directly fit.

What manifold is that?

But to answer your original question, I think you would be much better off selling everything separately.

You've already done a heap of work on this - why not give it to Dann or one of the other turbo boys on here and get them to finish it off. Looks like a really clean MK1 - and it would be worth way more finished than in parts I reckon.

Understood - what I was suggesting is that you enlist some help in finishing the work you've started - it's unlikely you will recoup the cost of your labour in the sale of the BPT parts, and the package is pretty much a perfect match for the car.

The bpt was pretty much a 'built' engine anyway. Okibi has a spec on the forum.

Use logic. Use what it cost you. If no takers go from there.
