Manifold gaskets and new fasteners will add to the cost. I'm going to order new heat shields so I gotta add that in also. My time plus expenses probably cost me a grand by the time it's done.

Took me 6 hours in total laying in the snow. Mountun Goat , Oct 8, Luckydog and Black Wolf like this. Black Wolf , Oct 8, Mountun Goat , Oct 12, Black Wolf , Oct 12, Rob , Oct 12, More pics backing my way out of the starter replacement.
