OSUGT Posted March 9, 2006 Author Report Share Posted March 9, 2006 Thanks very much, guys. The 1500 quote included all parts and taxes. I'll give them a ring. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Guest powers Posted March 9, 2006 Report Share Posted March 9, 2006 this is not a difficult job. I would tackle it yourself. Ford head changing kit is 105 dollars. Another question I have is how are both head gaskets bad? The factory gasket is a MLS gasket and it is VERY rare that they just go bad.
