Default HELP! Looking for place to work on my engine!

I possibly have a scored cylinder wall and/or damaged piston rings. Does anyone know a reputable shop/place that would be able to disassemble my engine, find the problem, fix... resleeve or whatever needs to be done, and reassemble? Please help! Thanks.

Just curious , how did you do that? Or was it previous owner etc?
From what ive read on here, the 00-01 have the biggest and most common engine failures within the first 10k or so (rings,banjo bolts etc)
Good luck and get her on the road by spring.

Thanks guys.

Well I've always had my engine "eating" an abnormal amount of oil, so there must've been a time where it didn't have proper lube in the cylinders. I'm the original owner. I was going to sell my car, but recently had a change of heart.

Twiztid, thanks, I got your number. You will be hearing from me very soon.
