Refers to a 3SGTE swap, but is still relevant to the non-turbo.
Depending on your budget you might also want to consider cutting your losses, selling the Celica and putting the money you would've on the engine rebuild toward a newer car with less issues. If I knew how much I'd end up spending I definitely would've considered this option.

personaly i'd go and do this too, i've got a ST-162 with a 3S-GE and when mine decided that just didnt want to go anymore i had an engine change over to a reco engine in from HM Gen engines, cost me $2,500 plus install, but mind you its got new pistons in it, among other things, and im still throwing money at it because there are some other problems that have arrisen now, so i'd say cut your losses, get a newer car, and tell your son to get a job and pay for a bit of it at least, he might cut down on doing crazy stuff if he knows he has to pay for it
