    Happy Holidays everyone! Tanong lang po. My crack ang cylinder head ng car ko Nissan Sentra. Ano dapat kung gawin? Re surface lang po ba or palit ng cylinder head? Magkano po kaya ang surplus cylinder head? Reasonable na po ba ang surplus head worth 18,000? My engine GA14. Salamat sa reply....

    You can't resurface a cracked head, only a warped one.

    18,000 sounds expensive. You can buy a full engine for about that much... might want to look at buying a full engine, so at least you have extra parts.

    Ang pagbalik ng comeback...

    yup, 18K is already the price of a complete surplus engine c/w manual transmission of that size. just buy the whole engine/tranny assembly and either swap it or just use it for spares.

    never have it repaired. lalong sasakit ulo mo niyan. palit ka nalang ng surplus c/h, pa crack test mo muna sa machine shop bago bayaran. if 18k, buong makina nalang bayaran mo.

    I think the price is still expensive for a cylinder head. You can get a complete engine at 14k for your sentra

cylinder head problem...
