Identifying the problem isn't going to be a hard one. The car got stuck in 1st gear while someone tried to race it and 'Manual shift' an automatic, the end result is this:

But before I begin surgery I'd like to do a little prep work, I also received some more free goodies (i.e. an extra engine) so I can use the rods and crankshaft from it.

Tomorrow (1/25/2010) all this goes into the machine shop:

I am using stock 2g pistons for this one (assuming stock bore will be usable).

All in all I didn't have to spend much money in parts, the list so far is:

Arp Main Studs,
ARP Rod Bolts,
Timing Belt Kit,
Water Pump,
Balance Shaft Eliminator Kit,
Various gaskets,
Rear Main Seal

After the machine work I can buy bearings and rings (OEM Of Course) And pick up an OEM Oil Pump while I'm at it.
