Damn, not looking good. What was the cause of the damage? My eclipse threw a rod and that was a mess as well.

Ouch. Just for references, I hope that's not what your paying (the bill)? Because you could buy a top to bottom race engine installed and built to much better standards for less than you have quoted there.
