Thanks for you responses.Bribenz asked why the two quotes for the heads;There are not two quotes.My mechanic will have to get the heads rebuilt by someone else at a cost of $275 canadian to $495 canadian.I really have no idea what he means by grind kits so it bothers me when you mention the fact that this is not needed if he rebuilds the heads;and by the way my problem is definately beyond a valve seal job according to my mechanic;something about way too much movement when he took the covers off.He charges me $45 hr canadian for his work which seems quite good to me.Is twenty hours of labour for this kind of job the norm?
