Im going to be changing my Head gasket next week and I wanted to run my parts list by you guys to see if I missed anything. I'm also throwing out prices for those of you that want an idea of what it's costing me.

Top end gasket kit - $112 from Dodge (It was $174 from Satan and Napa... seriously)
Head Bolts - Duno, just going to pick them up from Dodge when I get my gaskets
Timing Belt Kit - $129 Includes belt and pullies (Napa)
Water Pump - $45 (Napa)
Machine Work - $275 (makes sure everything fits right, also includes valve work)

Total:
With Machine Work- $633
Without Machine Work- $358

Im getting new plugs and wires in a few months when I get my turbo :7

I'm thinking that I can get the Timing belt kit and H2O pump from Dodge at a lower price also... Ill update the list when and if that happens :) Also, one last thing, is the machine work really necessary? My dad suggests that it would be wise to do it since I have the money. However, i'd really like a UDP or a Modern Performance TB :P Suggestions?



"Shut your mouth and open your eyes."

First, give Bob Kise a call and check prices on your parts, the prices you listed sound a little high.

*edit* Make sure you tell him you are with 2GNT, there is a discount *edit*

I suggest the UDP first, especially since you are going to have the stock one off anyway.
