thanks for the input I will phone them on monday

rang around today and the best estimate I got was $1100 for that price I will ship the car back to SA where I can get it done for 1/3 of that.. but that is a last option at the moment as I need to take lots stuff with me..

I m only in canberra for a short time longer, I need it fixed and ready to drive the 1900Km back to SA. on the way here it was using 10.2 liters of fuel per 100kms over the hole trip. I hope it will be the same when I get it fixed...

I will get back and tell you how it goes...

lately i've been taking my car to ultimate tunes in phillip. they're pretty honest and so far have done good work on my car.

u might also wanna check out stiles automotive, also in phillip. their add in the yellow pages says they're ford specialists so could be worth a shot. may as well check some other places while you're in phillip.

In the end and $986 latter I finally got it done at Dyno Tune Belconnen the head needed to be staightened and other small stuff a little more then I want to pay but have a 6 month 10,000 km aust.wide-warranty hope it goes well didn't want worries. looks good...

The only question i didn't ask is what is the white glue stuff on all the gaskets anyone now? I will ask next time when I drop back for a check over in 1000 km
