RockAuto is good on prices.. However I have everything I need and its shipping from... 5 different places.. So I'm actually paying more than the dealership with tax at the moment!
I'm probably just going go get the stuff from the dealership except the waterpump and timing belt since those are a lot cheaper on Rockauto and ship from the same location.
Right now my total is between rockauto and the dealership with tax and shipping is around $240.
Not bad and that is for the following
Timing belt
Timing belt pulley
Timing belt tensioner
Water Pump w/seal (gates part but it says "reverse rotation".. what does that mean?
10 Head bolts
Exhaust manifold gasket
Intake manifold gasket(s)
Head gasket
Then I will need coolant, distilled water, oil, oil filter and the wrench for the water pump(where can I find that)
anything else you all can think of?
"While you're in there" gets expensive.. I know this from owning 3 Mercedes and 2 Deloreans
