Default Need HG replaced

My head gasket is leaking coolant from the front of my b16, but im afraid to replace it and it just leak again, nor do I have much time to do it. whats a good shop around here that could replace it and mill the surface if it needs it. and about how much money would i be looking at? thanks

I was thinking accuracy automotive but i dont know if they do that kinda stuff.

also was looking into replacing it with an after market hg instead of an oem one, because I hear that they are subject to failure from defect.

Yup, sure do. We would like to see it before we condemn the HG though.

alright i'll check around. I decided to do it myself because of the cost, since i swapped the motor myself, might as well do this too. but I still need the head resurfaced...

Swapping a motor and tearing into one are two different things.

I'd let someone who knows what they are doing tear into that thing. That way you know it's done right.

Shad is a hell of a Honda man and he is one of the few that will touch my car, ever.
