Your a little low on that estimate. Just had mine done at the stealership....$2,700 <img src="/forums/images/graemlins/scared.gif" alt="" /> which included Knock sensor and wire, plug wires, cap and rotor, T-belt, oil, coolant, and some other odds and ends. Sent my injectors off as well to be cleaned. Heads got new valve seals and milled flat as well. Lots of money, but I didn't have the time to do it.....


My quotes were just for the HG replacement. I paid < $1100 with $150 worth of new head bolts back in '02. The rest of the engine was just fine, so no need for t-belt, etc. Heads were sent to Tim @ DOA for porting and valve check, etc. But that was an unnecessary/unrelated expense.

I didn't let mine get bad; I had the gaskets replaced ASAP as soon as I saw a hint of a problem, so there were now chain reaction issues.
