I would guess that ordering a complete turn key engine would be a better way than trying to deal with your present engine.Shipping it to the USA or attempting to rebuild it ,with the needed machining,in Greece doesn't seem to me to be the right direction.
Here are two known professionals I would contact and discuss all your wants and options with :
Brent Lykins (502) 759-1431 brent@b2motorsportsllc.com

Keith Craft (807) 246-7460 keithcraft.com |
+1....My suggestion would be to contact either of the 2 mentioned above and have a "long block assembly" built and shipped to you...you would then re-use your oil pan/starter/valve covers/distributor/intake manifold/carb/water pump/timing chain cover/harmonic balancer/pulleys and a few little odds and ends, you and your mechanic would then install these parts from your present motor to the new one and install in your car.....it would be the most cost effective way to get you back on the road and probably the quickest also......
trying to re-build your present engine is not the best choice considering your location and the amount of damage and the engine itself.......
BTW: ever figure out what brand cylinder heads are on the engine???
