Once its back on, I'm hoping thats what the missing was all about
Got a price on fixing your head up? or isn't it worth it? If you are going to replace the head I'd go the reco one for $500 and get a warranty. I wouldn't put on in out of a wreck, as it could require reco'ing and probably cost you even more.

the local bloke quoted me $50 to weld the journals, $250 to do the valves and another $250 for the timimg chain tensioner/guide then I'd be up for gasskets etc on top of that....then they tellya to shop locally
when i get the same deal with freight for over $100 cheaper....would rather just swap motors with me first Ea but the old man has busted his hand up and all his mates are invisible when there's work mentioned so I really hope this solves the problems |

Looks like the reco the go then, If you have to have it freighted in how will you go if you need a warranty claim? Is it a reputable company?
