    i know depends on what the costs are, ill probably send the head off to get skimmed and get cleaned up, and hmm not sure might scrap it, its too rusty

    Sell it, you might get a bit more than scrap value. I would at least make sure the block was level/flat.

    You might be able to check flatness at your college. They might have a straight edge you can use. I think that's the name of it.

    Hmm after working in the rear of the s13 today, the rears gone, I can't drop the subframe because the bolts are rounded and rusted, , instead of scrapping the shell I may just go out and make it into a drift missile, full bodge up jop, strip the front end make it tubular, get a cheap ca18det and throw it in, strip the whole interior, get another shell to have as a clean daily/showcar and with a full ca18det rebuild, then in the future maybe an SR20 would be the plan!
