Just rebuild the motor. Its not the end of the world when you spin some bearings. When i got my monte carlo (my first car, when i was 16, keep in mind) it had a rod knock from 2 spun bearings, It needed entirely new heads cause they were cracked, crank and 2 rods destroyed, And i had the motor out, found parts, rebuilt, and in by myself in 2 months, With ported and bigger valve heads(done by nick manarino at modern performance). And then a few days after that i changed it to a regular carb and vaccum distributor and put headers in it, again by myself(also added about 100 hp). And it seems like you have a garage or space available to keep your car, I did all this in the dirt in my yard over the winter. So im sure you can get that motor out and change some bearings. So dont go thinking your car is "TKO" just cause you have a few motor problems.
