Machine Shop Recommendation
Hi everyone.
The head gasket on my 96 blew, 125k miles. I'm looking for a recommendation on a machine shop to have the head resurfaced.
Anyone have a bad experience replacing the head gasket on a high-mileage 1.8? The shop I took it to for the diagnosis (NTB in Rockwall) will not replace the head gasket because (their words) putting a refurbished head on an old block can cause problems due to performance mismatch of the "new" head and old block. Anyone ever have or hear about this happening?
Thanks
