Question about cutting

I have a Pan-American Eb that I'm going to turn around to a front-valved horn, but I'm trying to decide if I should make it an Eb or F. I don't really care which key it's in except that I want to make it the key which will give me the best chance of successfully making a playable horn. All things being equal I'd make an F because of the higher resale value. Is it likely that I'd have better luck with one key or another? I'm increasing the bore from .656 to .689, if that matters.

Thanks,
Scott
