    I doubt it's gonna cost $30k, won't know until the head is off though.
    On your numbers, for 4 yrs and average of 100k miles a year.... Your maintenance cost is .14/mile or $250/week +/-. That's is heck of a lot cheaper than I'm spending...

    Looking at it that way it is pretty cheap. I figure $0.15 a mile for maintenance. It doesn't cost that much but that's what I figure.

    That's BS. You are mechanically inclined, you could roll in the rod and main bearings yourself.... Where's @spyder7723 ?
