97 5vz-fe broken rod.

i have a 1997 toyota t100 with the 3.4l v6. recently the HG failed do to overheating, i put a HG set on it and three weeks later a loud knock was coming from the motor. i took it to the mechanic and he said it was a broken rod and that i would need a new engine. i called jasper and they wanted 3500 for one of there engines. no junk yards have any of these motors. does anyone have any suggestions as to where i could get a reliable motor from?

look at a jdm (japanese domestic market) engine on e-bay. or a nationwide salvage yard hot sheet.
