You know, all you need to change that out is the head gasket and that little 3 bolt gasket between the exhaust manifold and the down pipe. Leave the intake and exhaust manifolds in place and just unbolt the head from the block. Now if it's warped, there's one more trick I can show you that involves sanding belts and a piece of formica covered board.
What's the gasket cost anyway...like $24 and another $5 for the 3 bolt gasket?Last edited by iceracerdude; 12-04-2011, 03:48 PM.
