You can buy an in car engine bracket from harbor freight. Basically it grabs the engine and mounts to the shock mounts. Then you can drop the subfram and have everything right there. Getting a crank turned is about 90 bucks. Or you can just buy the crank kit which comes with crank and appropriate main and rod bearings for about 250bucks. just make sure your rod diamater hasnt gotten beat out of roundness
