car info:
1995 toyota celica gt convertible okay so when i got my car, i didnt really know what all is wrong with it. When i wend to the mechanic, he said i have low compression on one of the cylinders. He suggested a new engine. THen i went to another mechanic. he took some tubes out and told me one on my valve is bent and suggested a new cylinderhead.I got it to work, and installed ebay headers and an intake. about two weeks ago, i blew my header gasket. Now i ordered a new cylinderhead from ebay : http://cgi.ebay.com/ebaymotors/ws/eBayISAP...RK%3AMEWNX%3AIT my brother now tells me to rebuild the complete engine. He says i now need the following: Bearings pistons motor mounts crankshaft oil pump waterpump timing belt gasket set lubricants and sealants i found a rebuild kit on ebay for 300 dollars shipped but it doesnot have the crankshaft, pumps and timing belt. i was just wanted to know if this is all i need and/or something else. and how much would the labor be for some stuff i cannot do it myself. please help me i would really appriciate it. if some of u live near houston texas (tx) can you meet me and tell me all i need!

Wow you had spare parts left over? thats always a bad thing if you know you didn't buy them as extra's. well the fuel injectors have a grommet and O-Ring but i'm not an expert on this
