Default I got a blown motor

Well it apears my life can suck alot more than it has lol. I talked to my mechanic today and he checked out my EG6 because it was spitting out alot of whit smoke so i thought maybe it was a gasket that was in need or replacing. He said to fix the head gasket to get the compression tests and all that would cost around 1400 dollars I started a thinking NEW MOTOR only problem is I have no money seeing as I spent it on the hatch. I have in mind a auto GSR v-tech(yes i know why auto) but reasons for it is to make it even a bigger sleeper than it could of bone with stick.So guys I need opinions about what should i do

what to do...what to do...dont be such a n00b and form coherent sentences. But that does suck for your car man. Try running some seafoam through there. And an auto GSR? wow. Dont you want a car thats fun to drive also? Last time i checked, Auto's weren't too fun to drive.

I wonder if the JDM b16 auto tranny is shorter than the LS auto trannies here in US...Im assuming that's the only auto b-series tranny available for his wishful set-up.
