OK, haven't been driving my C63 much, but its going on its 10 year anniversary and want peace of mind. Where's the best place, fair pricing to get my head bolts done and tappets while I'm at it. Thanks!

Love the C63. So much that its one the the few cars I've kept this long! lol. Just such a classic.

While you are at it, what have folks been paying to have the bolts + tappets done?

when I did the headbolts, I had headbolts, lifters, and valve stem seals done. I also had them throw weistec billet pulleys in, but now I would do the ones Shardul has. either ones will be better than the stock plastic ones, but the weistec ones are more expensive. while things are apart, I would also either have the injectors cleaned or replace them. I think I also had the timing chain tensioner done. I had 86k on the car when I did it.

Thanks guys. I guess I have some comparison shopping to do!

Happen to remember what that cost you?

I have a bid in hand, parts + labor, to do head-bolts, tappets, and chain tensioner for $5,297.

norb

Where are you located? Is that the going rate? Wow, I was hoping for around $3K range.

I have another verbal quote to do the head bolts and all the "while you're in there"s for "about $5k."

Ventura county.

That makes my estimates seem like bargains...
