yeah more than you can count on your fingers.

i'd charge 300 for a 95 acura legend headgasket.. maybe $400.

not an integra..pff
i've done integra headgaskets in less than an hour and a half.
they are ridiculously easy. hardest part of it is lining the teeth of the t-belt, and that's CAKE.

an integra t-belt is a 35 minute job.. once the belt's off, there's nothing else to it.

and i stand by my statement of just a few bolts and connectors!

its cool to know you do your own work, but i still think 200 isnt a ripoff, especially since you need to buy the headgasket set with all seals and gaskets.
