    Yep its probably gonna be easier and cheaper to get a used block than to try to fix all that in the long run...is it auto or manual? If you decide to sell it hit me up

    You wouldn't get a whole hell of a lot selling it imo; my .02: get a good d or b swap and drive it until you can scrap up funds for a respectable ride, or get it fixed, the right mechanic will know what's wrong. GL man
