I'll chip in cash and get the rest of the job done which ever direction this goes.
What everyone needs to understand is another motor is the cheapest and quickest alternative. Any reputable wrecker will offer at a minimum a 30 day warrenty and the car will be back on the road by Christmas and not from some goose off facebook or old mate down the road, a decent tested 2nd hand motor.
I can tell you now on a good day when you send components to a machinist it can take 2 - 3 weeks to get them back, also the parts that have failed we are not sure how much they are, how long it will take to get them or how deep the problems are. If jonathan decides to rebuild his can will be off the road till mid February
Mark your block you've stripped did you mark where each part came from or did you just pull it down??
Kallen mate, turbo or not this motor would've shit itself anyway coz or whats happened to the timing gears
