would need to be opened up and inspected. I would say it would be cheaper to swap the motor out.

no no that is the bottom end. the block is a must and if the car has been driven like this then the head may need it as well.

I dont by that... post up a video of the sound now then let me see. cause that is dead on what a spun bearing sounds like. Would that sound go away when you pressed the clutch in?
