replacing head

[01wow8g]

So I'm kinda new to this but I do understand how it wrks. My timing belt broke a while back so I replaced it. Come to find out that my valves were bent so I had a mechanic tear it all down n re machine the head n replace the bent valves. So one day he gets mad cuz my brother tells him that what he is charging me is too expensive so after he got the head back from the machine shop I get get a text saying "Hey Alex I'm sorry to inform you but I am no longer able to work on your car. All the parts are in the trunk including he machined head with new valves n all brand new gaskets. So if yu can plz come pic up yoyour car. The keys are in it. Thank you." So I towed my car home n look in my trunk to find all my parts thrown in there along wit all my nuts n bolts. Idk how to tell if my head has been machined n valves been replaced or even how to put the son of a bitch on. Somebody plz help me here thank you.

Wow, sounds like your brother needs to keep his big mouth shut. Exactly how much was he charging you to perform this service that refused to work on your car after getting chewed out?

P.S this is no easy task...

if the head is fully assembled putting it back on isn't difficult but still by no mean's a job for an amateur, if however it is in pieces i will tell you now that there is no way you would be able to do it. It would be best to either kiss up and make good with the mechanic or find someplace else to have the work finished

Yea it is fully assembled. But I myself never been that deep into a engine. So I was just wanting to know what would have to be done like torque specs n stuff.

^There is no easy way to do it, there's only the right way. Pick up a repair manual, read the section over for head gasket replacement and go from there.
