Need help on my car!

Hey guys, so recently I blew my motor. My buddy Greg has helped me already take off the head and I already gave that to APEX for inspecting, etc. Now, I need to take out the motor basically to give that too to APEX for inspection etc.
So now, I need help removing the bottom end out of the car. Only things in their are bottom end, tranny, and t-case. My buddy Greg is coming again hopefully tomorrow, Sunday, but not 100% sure, but I def. need everything out, because this is my DD and I need it for school/work. So if anyone is free tomorrow and wants to help out a fellow evo owner, I'd greatly appreciate it. I'm thinking we should first remove tranny, then t-case, and then bottom end, but if anyone has any bettter ideas, just tell me, or better yet, just come, and we'll do it lol. I'd give gas money, and something extra for the help like food etc. So if anyone wants to come tomorrow, just PM me or call me at:
224 436-2166, and i'll give ya guys the address, it's a little north of Chicago.
Thanks a lot!

I don't know to be honest with ya, it was on a very safe tune and I was only running like 21 psi...just happened out of nowhere, so I want to get the motor out by Sunday, and everything is out except, bottom end, tranny, and t-case, so whoever wants to help and knows what they're doing, please do...

So what'd you do? Chuck a rod through the block?

Nope, the exterior of the block is fine. When we took off the head though, you can tell the valves hit the piston in cylinder number 2, so I gave the head to APEX to check for bent valves, etc, and we hit piston number 2 with a hammer to see if it's still connected to the rod, and it just fell like 4 inches, so now we gotta find out what happened to the rod. If it didn't damage any of the walls, then I can re-use the block, but if it did, then I have to get a whole new bottom end and that's a lot of $$
