I mean that at this point, it is great news, he knows what the problem is that was discovered last fall. I spent months trying to figure out why my car was down 50+whp and THAT sucked.

This is exactly what I did. I was pissed off I had to yank the head again (I had a HG issue a second time in 8 months), but in the end, I could drive the car, save up cash, and do it when I wanted to, when it worked for MAP, and when it worked for my helpers (Hughes and Thielen/bananas--thanks again for the help guys!).
MAP had the core head mostly done, Anna and I pulled the head off on a Friday night in about 1.5 hours, spent a few hours with thielen and hughes cleaning/running around/prepping, then hughes and I put the head back on monday evening...Matt, we can do the same for you and it'll be a sweaty but painless process! A few pizzas and some beer and we'll have it done!
