Bob or Chris and all, I too have a 1997 Trans Port in need of new head gaskets and will begin this project this coming weekend. I will have the luxury of a full garage with lift and mechanic who will guide me on this, although I have to do all of the work. Sounds like you guys nailed it! Any last minute tips or pointers? My plan is to tear everything down this weekend, then go back in the following weekend and put it all back together with new gaskets. My mechanic recommends taking the heads to a machine shop for inspection? (Sounds expensive!) Also, just curious, Chris, you recommend OEM parts, yet these are the ones that have failed, and lastly, was there ever a factory recall for this problem?

Thanks to all
