Now I am depressed......
Talked to Dave, nice guy and some good advice. $1050 , parts and labor. For some reason I was hoping for about 1/2 that price. I'm just going to put the heads back together, for just driving it around town I'll be fine. Thanks. |

That number scares me! |

They have worked on my 2.0L heads. http://www.paintersgrinding.com/ They did a valve job and dual springs install for a few hundred. |
