So my 97 bg5c manual wagon has blown its head gasket, at least we're 90% sure it has. It got real hot a couple months ago when my radiator cracked and i didnt notice so was driving around with little to no coolant left inside the car. Have since replaced the crappy standard radiator with an alloy one from redline performance (who i highly recommend btw). But now i just keep losing coolant and i'm sure there are no leaks anywhere, every couple of days i have to top up the coolant. I've taken it to the local mechanics and they seem to think its a head gasket issue as the coolant system is becoming pressurised after a few minutes cold running.
Anyway long story short, the car is going up to chch to DCH motorsport to get the head gaskets replaced and have the heads skimmed.
I'm just wondering if there is anything else i should get these guys to do while they have the engine out?
thanks for the advice.
