Damn Jason, I really hate to hear this.  I'll be on the watchout for
that guy next time I'm in Redondo.

 It really sounds like you have a blown HG.  Not the end of the world,
but it is a PITA to do on a newly purchased car.  I guess I'd look at
the positive points, these are all good reasons to upgrade:)

Do a new HG, use headstuds if you can, that way you're ready for later ;)  

Brakes, well, think about doing a BIRA sys 1 with used calipers to get
the price down.

Stromung exhausts are awesome, but expensive so you might just have
something custom bent up.
