Ok so its a 3sge. So it needs a new headgasket! Or is the head warped so badly after overheating it you need a new one of those too!

Just get a replacement engine and swap over.

nah, the head is cracked and needs replacing, any advice!

You still haven't said if it's turbo. But as others have said you would be better off fitting a second hand engine.

thanks pyro, will pass on

if you are going to buy a s/h head off trademe.!you had betterask if its been tested.otherwise its an expensive piece of alloy.
i can do a 3sgte turbo head. crack tested, hardness tested and vacuum tested.for $350 + $20 fght.
not a "bolt on" item. as you would still need to lap valves in , change valve stem seals and check tappet clearanceprior to fitting.
have3sgenon turbo head. but i would have to get that tested. prior to selling . same $.

3sge and 3sgte heads for the gen 2 engines iirc are the same, the manifold and everything bolts over from one to the other. Cams are higher lift on the N/A engine, consider it an upgrade. I used to have 2 heads off running motors and I couldn't get $60 for the pair on here after several tries so I threw them out.
