how much would it cost to get all new parts and fix the bottom end then?
can u do this from underneath ie remove the sump pan?

easier and cheaper to replace the whole engine
and no you cant do it from underneath! need to remove the cylinder head, so might as well replace the whole engine

No point buying another gsi, same thing might happen in 6 months to that, just buy a motor and put it in.
