[QUOTE="callmefence, post: 1761835, member: 24947"] Also there's a reason shops tend to want to replace everything associated with a problem instead of surgically just doing what's needed. People want to beat them up if they run into a problem. The detail of what happened in the op seems very believable to me. Along with surprisingly honest. They ran into a broken exhaust bolt on a truck that's had lots of wrenches on it. The op himself basically said it's worn out. They tried to fix it because at this point what else do you do? It's apart putting it back together doesn't help. They tried and it didn't go well. At the very most they cracked a well used cylinder head that needed to come off anyway and go to a machine shop. There's not to much milk spilt here imo. From way over here I'm thinking I'd probably pay the bill and keep them in mind for future work. Edit. As I said earlier I would look into replacing the engine vs 8000.00 on a head. But I don't think I'd be to upset with the shop [/QUOTE]
