Default Who wants to do a headgasket?

Turns out I have a blown HG on my s2k, anybody on here done one before? I don't have the place/tools, and I would rather not pay a shop to do it. I'm in the Fredericksburg area.

Do not PM me! I've pulled the head a couple of times. I now pay to have it done. Some things are not worth the pain-n-suffering. Sorry.

My buddy did mines. If you cant find any help I can ask to see how much he would charge you. It will be alot cheaper than other shops.

I didnt think it was that big of a pain at all...got a bit interesting at times...but overall not a big deal. I would do it, but it would prob take me a bit since im working/going to school nonstop.

If I were half my age, I'd probably say the same thing, too.
