mother****er!!!! i got an estimate from a mechanic a month ago for doing the headswap for 500 bucks. i figured it was a great price so i didnt shop around. it's been a month because he kept putting me off, and also because there was a car there to which the owner hasnt come and picked it up, so i couldnt get mine in there. so i waited for a month. finally i call the guy and he says he talked to the mechanic and it and said its much more complex then he thought. he gave me a price for over 1000 bucks. i just hung up. i dont get it. he told me they swapped heads on similiar year mustangs all the time. how is this so different? only thing different is changing the heat transfer tube and drilling the tap. so now i gotta call around more places now and find a shop. if i had a damn garage i would do it myself right now. i got the heads really cheap and i really dont wanna sell them but im sick and tired of waiting and having people **** with me. what should i do?
PS. if anyone wants to come to baltimore and help me do this, i'll pay handsomely.
When most people can do it themselves or shop are charging $500.
