BB...
Above has been half a dozen very knowlegable people giving you the same good advice - don't procede without due care & caution. And the advice is for free too.....
Now you may believe you know more than this collective brains trust and you may have plenty of money to burn on your engine, but if I were you I would think long & hard about the possible (probable) outcome of "just driving the car a bit".
It really looks like its time for some professional advice (and that's not being defeatist, just smart looking at the potential outcome). I suspect it will be a lot cheaper than the suck it and see action you are proposing.
