Message	I'm doing a clutch job and 60k mi maintenance in about a month once I'm out of school for the summer. At a dealer or Z mechanic this kind of job would reach into the $1000s just for labor. In my case.. I'll buy the parts, steaks and a case of beer and the job will be knocked out in a couple days with the help of some mechanically inclined friends. I helped do a head gasket replacement in an eclipse last summer and it really wasn't a big job. I can't even imagine how a Z head gasket replacement could be $3000. Hell, Saad changed the head gasket on his Supra in the parking garage during the Tx2K2 meet. I know Greg is a great mechanic, and I'll all for doing it right.. but $3,000.. that's just hella expensive.
