Update for you all
Car has been in since Tuesday, I went in to drop off oil, filter and a few other bits and they had the engine out on the bench lining up the timing chain getting ready to take the heads off to be sent away.
I should see the car towards the end of next week - end of Nov - they estimate about 10 - 12 hours will share with you all, total time and costings etc.
Getting completed is
Head Gasket Kit - Full kit for everything rocker covers, Valve stem seals etc etc from Tradewind
Oil, Oil filter, Thermostat and thermostat ring
Estimate
$1,000 Labour
$400 Heads
Already have the Kit
Should be able to get away just under $2k if I'm lucky
slightly Off topic, anyone know how much an automatic transmission fluid flush would set me back just after cost of the oil and est hours of labour
Cheers
Will keep you updated
