Tbh when people say a head is 300 that does not factor labour costs and if it was me i might consider a new engine unless I was fairly confident about the rest of the unit being good. Bit of a Pandora s box. When you are desperate you might even consider 'Elite' engines.
Jacks garage used to be good but expensive. It specialised in air cooled T2s. Grant sold up years ago, so no idea who owns the business now or what the work quality is like.
