Unhappy 2.8 30v help!......

1st post. im a noob

i have a 98 a4 awd 2.8 30v 5 speed

I got off a red light punching it and went up to 6200 rpm, when i was going to shift into 2nd the engine shut off, i tried starting it nothing only the crank turned. took the front end of and and noticed that the timing belt had snapped. put on a new timing belt, aligned the marks and i had no compression. so im thinking bent valves or some thing. i was told that the car had a rebuilt engine but the guy seemed kind of shady, is there anyway to verify numbers or something? the odometer reads 207,000
my question is what i should do...should i buy a another motor, take off the heads?(which i have no idea how to do) is their anyway u can show me step by step on how to take off the cylinder heads plz.....thanx!




i pressure washed the front of the block, it had alot of oil sludge









idk why i put this one
