Bro, just buy you another motor to save yourself a major headache. It will be worth the money you're about to spend and headache you're about to encounter. You're not the 1st one to get a crappy motor and you won't be the last. But at least give yourself a fighting chance by getting a motor that you can put in your car and enjoy and use your busted motor for a project whereas you can take your time and build a stout beast.

But i have already had all the work done to get this thing going and i am so close. But if push comes to shove how much do u think i can get just the motor for, no transmission or harness?

If you already had the work done, how much is left. A motor will cost you around $700 with all the goodies attached and of course a little less stripped. The problem is that people are picking-up some crappy motors where the bottom end is done or nearly on it's way out the door. The motor in mu old lady's sentra hass been a bee with an itch by eating cranks and bearing for lunch. Luckily for me, bottom end issues are resolved.
