hi, i'm new to this. i have a question. i own a 2001 chevy cavalier, and its in the shop right now to have the head gasket fixed. what would an average price be to have this work done to the car? i was quoted a price of $1,200. any information about the pricing, or anything else with the head gasket would be appreciated. thanks! :banghead: :banghead:

To say the least, that is more than I would pay for JUST a head gasket replacement. Unless the head needs to be machined that is too much IMO.

yes my old cavy had the same problem. And yes the head needs to be machined. But mechanic only charged me 800 for it, then i sold the car. It was the second time the headgasket blew on it. AND GM OFFERED A SILENT RECALL ON THE BLOWN HEAD GASKET AND WILL FIX IT FOR FREE!!!!!!!!!

Head gaskets??????
Cavalier??????
Street racing forum?????

What is going on?????

I agree wrong forum take is somewhere else........But hey that is to much for a cavalier!

It should be around the 800 or less mark!
