This is a labor intensive job....Looks like about 10 hours to do. Lots of stuff to remove and install to get at them, such as: Center and rear underbody panels Front engine mounts Both exhaust manifolds Parts replaced: New sealant Rubber O Rings(12) Cylinder head covers (2) Oil return pipes (6) Crankcase sleeve Cam plugs (6) Cylinder head cup seal Pretty involved job, not one for any average joe to take on! Not a cheap job either, we're talking over $1500.....sure glad I purchased my warranty now! Lou __________________ 1998 Guards Red Black/Black 5 sp. Work done '06 :Replaced bad hose and clamps from reservoir tank oil change and filter replaced seals on both cam covers brakes bled and refilled Replaced bent rear right lower control arm Front air dams and 3 underbody panels replaced Halogen headlamps replaced
