You guys are really in for a treat when you get the
bill for $1000.00.  About the going rate.  The
retail cost on the head gasket set is $300 plus.
Add a few more parts like exhaust, that
the mechanic torches off,  rather than unbolting,
and your up at the same price.  You see this is
just a come-on.    LIke  I said buy a KIA.
OR know about, and do it yourself.
