Yea he is a mechanic. I doubt he is going to help me though, if not I will just take it into my school shop and repair it there. Thnk you for everyone who has helped me, I almost fainted when I saw the cost of the repair. So if you want to replace the gasket with a metal one....you have to get that block milled right? Is it expensive? thnx again and sry for all the newb questions.
