so i believe i will prepare myself with a new head assy from mercedes and do it the right way.
everyone iknow is saying "get a used one" or i know a guy who can fix it" yea? for how long will it last!!
for the short time i have had this car and even shorted distance that i have driven, i feel it is worth the correct repair that will last.
besides i paid $500.00 for it., how can i complain about having to put a few $$ in it!!

is that the right part #?
I thought the 20 head had the 20 where you have the 96...
also, I thought the latest head was the #22 and it needed new PC's and a few other new parts...
