So say 17k for parts on the mid range of the scale.

Well, here's an easy check. You have a $20,000 budget and have "spent" $17,000 on parts. At a labor rate of $100/hour you now have 30 hours for labor.
The math is simple enough, you don't have enough money. For comparison, a same engine replacement is going to cost you 10 to 20 hours of labor. The valve recall is about $2,000 in labor and takes 18 hours by the invoice I saw.
