2002 Honda Accord. Can it be fixed or Nah?
Hello all,
I have a 2002 Honda Accord EX V6 Coupe. I was driving down the highway going from 0-60 far to quickly that I red lined, as the needle barely hit past 6,000RPMs it just shut off. I pulled to the side and tried to start it up again, but nothing. I had my car towed and the next day I opened it up to see that the timing belt was broken. After a long *** time of research and youtube videos, I learned that if the timing belt is broken then I have bent valves. Mechanics I called in my area either didn't do this type of engine repair or they were far too expensive. I ran my Bluetooth OBD2 scan too on the car and it gave me 2 codes: P1362 and P1367. I replaced the Crankshaft position sensor and the timing belt (did the timing and all) tried to start it up again, but the battery had died from sitting in my driveway for 2 weeks. I got the battery charged and tried to start it but all it did was crank and not start. There are no codes anymore, I'm thinking because the battery was disconnected or died is why there's no codes.
My question(s) is:
>Is the car done, can it be fixed?
>Should it be cheaper/easier to get a new engine put in it?
-If so, anyone know where I might be able to take the car or something?
I don't have a whole lot of cash but I don't want to get rid of this car, I absolutely love this car. I just need to know what my options are. Thank you if you read this.

Those codes would appear if the timing belt broke, no or erratic signal(broken belt) would cause those codes to illuminate.
Beg/Borrow/Steal a compression gauge and verify that the cylinders are fine. If compression is low, verify that the timing belt has been installed correctly.
If compression is good, verify you have spark and can hear the fuel pump when you turn the ignition to II(ON).
Verify your immobilizer is functioning, if the green key light is blinking then your car will not start.
