kieren1234 Posted March 26, 2008 Share Posted March 26, 2008 Hi all, could someone reccommend a place to go for a head gasket change that would be fairly local to Yorkshire area?? The headgasket is fine on the car now so the head does not need to be skimmed etc. Its just an uprated head gasket that need to be fitted for friends Na-t project. I assume he is going to have to spend a fair bit getting this done as i know it isnt the cheapest or easiest job in the world. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

supra dan Posted March 27, 2008 Share Posted March 27, 2008 i was quoted 18 hours labour which was to remove the head, dismantle all the components, rebuild and refit. plus the cost of skimming and gaskets etc Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
