OVERHEATED REAL BAD; I need help figuring out how much damage I did

I want to thank all of you guys for all of your help! However after realizing how much damage was done I turned to craigslist to search for a new one. I could not believe what I found. 95 3/5 4 door. 221k on the body, 87k on the engine. The man owned it for the last 12 years. Used it as a commuter to work and back. Just retired 3 weeks ago and decided to sell it. It came with the absolutely most overkill maintenance record I have ever seen. I feel pretty lucky at this point.

Score. Pull the trans out of your junker for a backup and learn how to rebuild that engine on your shelf so you can do an assembly swap next time you have problems (trans and engine)

You sure about that? There's not supposed to be such a combination.

good catch woodie. I didn't even consider the 4 dr concept on a 95 would certainly be the heavy sedan with 3 cyl not available.
It could very well be a swap job. I've seen a couple sedans trying to survive with a 1.0 5 speed.
