You figure labor to swap a head isn't that crazy. 7.1 hours per alldata for a headgasket job, figure an additional 1 hr for component swap stuff, so 8 hours @ whatever shop rate.
If you can do it yourself, great. If not, it is not a cheap option. What is your quote for the used 6 bolt engine? You might as well go all out and just drop in a built 6 bolt engine if you are going that route.

I think I might be going with the 6 bolt option.. I got quoted on everything that I need plus a rebuild and assembly and all the gaskets arps, the swap and wiring, etc.. 3770 for everything out the door at map including a built head with my bc 272's put in and all PLUS TAX.. Good price??
