Would most shops do that manifold/header swap, even though it's not the exact part for the exact model? And any idea what checking valve clearances would run at a shop? Or at least how many hours labor they might charge?

Actually not sure if I combined the two. I'll have to take a look at what the quote actually said.

Exhaust Manifold, Water Pump + Other Repairs Looking for thoughts and advice on what to do wrt a cracked exhaust manifold and some other issues. I'm not mechanically savvy, at all, alas. I wanted to make a thread, but I don't like making pointless posts, so post count isn't climbing. Anyway...

Really seems like you've put a lot of thought into this. Even for options you're opting out of, it seems like you've done your consideration!

Views like that, I'm thinking you should get out a bit more then!

I see so many of those just on the freeway and in parking lots, but almost never actually in use. It's kinda weird. On a more serious note, holy smokes have you done a lot with your rig. My wishlist just got 10x longer.

Looks like you're able to reply, though? Can't post 'til you get 15 replies.
