Don't be silly. I say use all resources (local and national) necessary to get it back on the road asap. That's what I did, but I assembled it all in my garage.
IMHO? Talk to MAP about building you a 4b12 motor (read: no core required). Have DB rebuild the motor that's already in there and then sell it once its complete. Whoever has time to assemble/install said engine once it is completed, have them do it. If it's DB, maybe they'll help you out, maybe not. If it's MAP maybe they'll give you a deal, maybe not.
You're right, you're in a pickle. You gotta do whatever you can to keep moving forward, I learned that hard when my motor went. It wasn't easy, but I had to move every piece through whoever could help me get it done quickest.
I have a love/hate relationship with this time of year for this reason. Second option? Sell the honda and buy a different honda (S2000!) and enjoy it for the summer. I found that having my evo down was a lot easier with the fact that I had the GLI (turbo, sporty) to drive every day.
Just my $.02. Use the community you have around you
