Default 1993 honda civic ex - overheated engine problem

Well this is what happen. I overheated it I bought a new radiator and thremostate and resavor because the car needed it all. But my question is when I put them all in the car spat out the coolent like 2 ft when I tried to start it. Thats one of my questions the other is when I took the head off the head gasket was cracked. And one of the cyclinders might have a crack. Its going horizonal. Doesn't cracks mustly go vertical? Also when I was driving it back after the last time it over heated on me, it didn't wanna pick up speed it would go at the most 25 and didn't wanna go anymore. Could that just be having no transmission fluid or could that be more?

blown head gasket, cracked block, cracked head all kill your power aka top speed floored 25 mph. And doing that just damages more.

Sounds like it's time for a motor swap.

lol you fucked that thing up all I can suggest is a compression test but if you cracked a sleeve it's time to find a replacement. no low trans fluid will not do that. why did you drive it back after overheating ? this is what happens....
