Pretty sure that the K-Member is exactly the same, the left side engine mount bracket that bolts to the engine is different between a 383 and a 440. The WIW section would be the best place to ask about what it's worth. https://www.engine-swaps.com/Pages/ProductsType/K-Frames.html

I just bought two of them, one a k-frame in excellent shape with the 383 motor mounts at $500 and the second a complete set-up with all suspension, brakes, torsion bars, and the unique sway bar with manual steering box for $1000. Of course I would not sell them for what I paid for them, so it really depends on what you have as far as what comes with it. Another factor is if it is a 67 k-frame it is worth quite a bit less due to the one year only idler arm mount, those usually go for $350-400 bare...
The funny thing about science is that if you change one miniscule parameter you change the entire outcome to the way you want it.

I'm pretty sure that the one year only 440 A body K member is NOT the same as my 1969 A body OEM 383 K member I have only seen one stock M code stock 440 motor A body and it had a altogether different drivers side front motor mount on it, not anywhere near close to looking like my stock 1969 383 drivers side mount What say you, Rhinodart on this?

383 and 440 k-members are the same. The 440 drivers side motor mount is actually a 383 mount that was bent out and an angle iron piece welded on.

And a real Mr. Norms M-Code GSS 440 block, the nicely drilled motor mount holes, and the shaved drivers side rear engine mount...
