exhaust manifold

I have a leaking exhaust manifold on my 85. My mechanic wants $800 to remove resurface and replace. Some of the studs are broken or stripped he said. Before you all say that I am getting ripped just think how hard this job will be.

Well, the exhaust manifold studs are very well known to break on these cars, so he's probably right about that.

As for the $800, I can't tell you if it's a good deal or not cause I haven't had any trouble with the manifold yet. It does sound a bit pricey though, I probably wouldn't pay any more than $500.

Yes that price is kinda steep. for that price you might as well take it to the dealership. If hes going to charge you that much.
