I have $1200 comming from a side job I did and Im putting it in my car to get it running again.what I need is a transmission and bottom end and Ill be going to the wrecking yard for the trans but I have a few debates what I should do for the block...

1.since its turbo I want to rebuild the blown engine "ring land fail" with forged internals on the bottom end and skip getting a used block at the yard all togeather

OR...

2.buy a block from the wrecking yard and slap my head and my appliances on it and have my car running asap and slowly rebuild my old engine forged internals and take my time with it a little more.

if I choose 2. I can have my car running and getting me around and I like that idea but its gonna cost more money odviously but the wrecking yard by my house will charge $110 for the fully rotating block warrentied.Then build my blown block taking my time with it.

If I choose 1. then I have a built bottom end but wont have my car for a bit,possably a few months if I go through howell But it will save me cash in the long run and less work I would have to do plus another reasuring bonus of not worrying about breaking this motor.

As of right now I have a good fuel setup for 8 psi so I shouldnt break nothing for awhile if I decide to go with route 2. Help me,What would you do?Its really hard to decide for me.
