personally, I'd hang onto things that can't be worn out with use or degrade with time on a shelf - I'd pitch the oil pump and balancer (unless the rubber still looks good - probably not though, as mentioned above), most of the rockers, etc. I'd hang onto the manifold, a few rockers in case a new one galls, any carbs or carb parts, exh manifolds, etc. Someone restoring a big block would probably love to have the intake since so many people tossed the originals over the years. At a minimum, you could offer em up on the board for free pickup and it will save you a trip to the dump. Pistons make good ash trays and distributor caps make excellent pencil holders. It holds 9!
