loud rapping noise---connecting rod? 900 1995

Hello again, Spook,

The mechanic removed the head and sent it to a machine shop that decared it pretty well unfixable. It is warped and the cam journals are out of alignment. He said this will cause the camshaft to drag and will take out the journals and could lead to the camshaft breaking.

Not quite sure where to turn at the moment. I do want to retain the car and preferably to get the head repaired if at all possible. I am checking other machine shops and suppliers at the moment.
