OK, this thread is stemmed off of this thread.

I need this thread to focus on different options of the motor, thats why I am starting a fresh thread.
I took the car to the Acura Dealer in N. Houston. He put a camera in the spark plug hole and reported to me that the cylinder is destroyed. More specific he said the piston looks like it melted and the rings are destroyed and the Darton sleeve is heavily damaged and the head has damage including the exhaust valves. I am going to Houston tomorrow to take a look for myself and get more details. I will try to take pics and vid of the monitor showing the damage.
I'm not an engine rebuilder, but I do understand the basics. I realize I have to purchase a new sleeve and have it machined in, but what about the other parts?/? Like the bearings and stuff, does that need to be re-done? and what about the head? What all has to be done to get this back on the road. I am on a budget, so please keep that in consideration to the advice. In other words I can't just go buttnuts on a Stroker motor from SOS or anything that.
