How many miles are on your rig? It seems like almost every 3.0 needs a valve job around 170k - 200k. I just took the heads of a '91 I bought and it cost me $320 to have them cleaned up, have all the valves reground and have the bottoms remachined. I spent $140 on the gasket set. So you might spend ~$500 on the whole deal. Its not too bad to do it yourself. How much will a garage charge you for a valve job?
Does anyone at what point in a 3.0's life the piston rings or crankshaft bearings start going bad?
