I already have the timing done at least. Don’t you have to take the engine out to do the oil pan seal? Maybe I could just order the head gaskets and not the whole kit. I asume valve stem seals are included with the new heads?

 

Idk what he could’ve done to cause it to lose compression but anything’s possible ig

 

As long as you get fully built heads the valves and everything should be all rebuilt with new seals.
I didn't do the oil pan seal, but I did every seal above the head gasket and the kit was $430. Head gaskets probably accounted for $200 of that.

 

I asked if he did a leak down test to make sure the rings weren’t bad and didn’t get a response.

you should ask him to do it again with you watching. How long did you run it with the fan bracket broken. did you ever see it over heat before you dropped it off at the mechanic?

 

Assuming you're not already dead inside?
