Hello,

anyone know roughly what head gaskets are worth for an L76 6ltr?
My ute is at a mechanics has been since Easter just gettin ****ed over an over now he has finally given me a cost after weeks an weeks it's ridiculous,

but one thing is apparently the cheapest head gasket you can get for one is $390 I nearly chocked. Had a quick google search found 2 sites selling them for $50 an ya need 2 so $100 all up.

Anyone had dealings with repco, super cheap or holden etc??
As in prices from a shop not of the net??

Thanks

When I was looking at head gaskets for my cam install and AFM removal my dealer contact emailed me the following:

Part #12610046, List price $110+gst each.

In the end I got them along with ARP head bolts (2 sets) from Fraser on here in the USA for around $A450 all up from memory inc. quick delivery. Can't remember the company he now works for - used to be Speed Inc but he's now somewhere else.
