Hey everyone, new here. Have a 2013 Honda civic SI with 141k miles on it, vehicle was brought in smoking and cracked radiator. After replacing the radiator and filling coolant it started and ran - shut it off to burp the coolant and adjust would crank no start after this. Pulled the spark plugs and found cylinder 4 completely doused in coolant and coolant evident in cylinder #1. pulled the cylinder head - cylinder head is warped 0.07, engine block is warped 0.015-0.020 using a straight edge. How much can the block and head be shaved to get them straight again? Trying to figure out if its even worth repairing.

ask a machine shop for the best results.

You can ask a machine shop to do the work, but they might find more things wrong and probably not worth trying to machine the head and block.

You are better off getting an eBay motor and putting new accessories on it.
