The >person I dealt with is Andy Starzynski. at $35-45 per tube, this is near $400 all in for parts, and you are going to need to pull rockers/rods to install. I'd seriously consider the $6 fixed tubes and redo the entire set by dropping the heads. A new head gasket is $30, and doing one side at a time will take 2 weekends. Plus you get to swap out the hardened old gaskets and inspect the heads. Do the passenger side first, it's easiest. If you are only replacing a single tube, then the collapsable ones are well worth it, but then again, maybe a dab of JBWeld will work too. Tim Smith
