Dont sell her cause of a blown head gasket! You'll get nothing for it!
Dont forget the 6A12 was also in the Galant, so a head gasket wont be too much. when I get home I'll dig up the part number for you & you can call Mitsi for a price. I'd also get your mechanic to call & get a price too as he may be able to get trade discount.
If its the front gasket gone, I'd expect around $800 including a head service, if its ther rear add another $200 in labour.
youd be lucky to buy the gaskets seperatly, i had to buy the whole kit, $600 odd which includes all the oil seals, exhaust gaskets, inlet gasket... everything,
its usually the front bank that lets go
if you dont change the oil seals youll end up in more trouble, its also good to check if your valves are bent.... like in my case.
good luck my friend, give me a Pm if you need any advice.... ive been through the process twice now
