I'll be changing the heads on my car soon. *
There's no way I'm coughing up £700 in the hope someone else does it right. At least if I screw it up, I'll have a reasonable idea of what I did.
Plus I've got some more bits to do while the heads are off.

* soon as in some time between now and hopefully this christmas....

You did say it was just the head gasket


Quoting: philoldsmobile
yeah, but its all the other bits that add up


But thinking about the fact that it's a V6
I assume both head gaskets have been replaced

philoldsmobile

yeah, you effectively gotta do the job twice..

both heads have been skimmed too and yes edge - they have had a crafty 1mm extra off them!
