Geeze that does sound alright.. What else would I need with it? Still need to repair my head and head gasket right? I've found a full built FG engine at a pretty good price not much more then the f6 bottom end on its own.. And thanks for the offer guys but I wouldn't want or expect anyone's time.. Not only am I too unwell to really work on it nor do I have the space so I'll just fork for the labour.. But it's such an awesome thought that it was even bought up.. Great bunch of guys.

Again thanks for all the input guys, I have a pretty fair idea of everything I need.. Now I just need to work out a budget to work with, what I want from the car and go from there. Originally it was just for a daily and to tow my rx3 but now that this has happened I am tempted to build it right the first time Unlike I did with my BA and go for some descent power on a reliable engine, not praying everytime I put my foot down that something wont pop hahaha It's even harder when my rx3 is right at the end of a 2 year build and still needs a bit of cash injection too.. Ah well we will see how we go. Once again I can't thank you guys enough even just for the offer to help out, definitely don't get that on other automotive community forums haha definitely need to donate once this is sorted :P hopefully I can sell some of my parts and some guitars to help out

What a run of seriously sh¡t luck!

Sounds like you're on the track with the engine at least. Car aside I hope you've got family and friends to give you a hand getting to the chemo appointments and whatnot mate. From what my gf tells me about her dad having it, it's very tough physically. Once you get the car sorted do a good skid to keep the smile on your dial :)
