Mate keep going, to coin matts phrase you have been like a dog without a dick recently. You know you dont build this to make it a useable daily, you only do this because you can and you like to prove to yourself you can. In the grand scheme of things it's not that expensive. Have you considered buying a second hand lathe and milling machine combo. They are cheaper than you think. Do the cams and valve gear first. HDi aftermarket management is getting cheaper and more available all the time and will be affordable eventually. I reckon in a year's time you'll be able to get it for sub 1200.
Stick it in the back of the shed for 6 months if you have to till your ready.
