ANY BUYING/SELLING IN THIS FORUM WILL RESULT IN AN INSTANT BAN!

Read the rules: http://www.cb7tuner.com/vbb/showthread.php?t=43956

Myself, and the other mods have been very nice and lenient with the rules. We have been deleting threads, and giving out warnings. Some members didn't get the clue and re-posted over and over... Now ANY member buying or selling in this section will be banned... No IF's AND's or BUT's.

    really depends on the shop what price did you get


    smoke tires, not drugs.

      Well the first price I got was, I called this machine shop about a week ago, and they said $116 for the valve job and $25 for resurfacing. So that comes to about $141. Is that good?

                    Well it was too good to be true, I go up to the Machine Shop and they tell me, I'm going to need a Head Gasket set, and that comes with every gasket you need, Exhaust/Intake/Head gaskets, and Valve seals, Etc. They were going to charge me $150.00 for the set, which brings the total to $305 for the complete job, so I said, "fuck that". The guy told me, I didn't have to get the set from there, so i called Autozone, and I got the same damn price $150. Then I looked on EBAY and came across a Full Gasket set, with every thing I need for $50. Now this business has pretty good feedback, is it safe to buy this gasket? Let me know your thoughts.
