If it's paid for, keep it. I agree with CC, scuff the head/block and be done with it. At this mileage, short of doing valve seals, I wouldn't waste the $$.

I am also with 81c3, this is a DIY project. Just dedicate a weekend.


It took me all weekend to do a tune up. And even that bit me in the ass. As Clint Eastwood said: "A man's got to know his limitations."

I can't even imagine me doing this in less than 3 weekends. My time is worth more than that. I don't want to be overly negative, but I never even imagined doing this type of repair when I bought the car. I've done what I think is within my ability.
