Good Ford Mechanic in Nashua area

Hello all. I'm looking for a good Ford Mechanic other than a dealer (stealer). I need to get my head gaskets replaced on 2002 F250 5.4l.

I was going to attempt this myself but I decided to get this done by someone who has a warm garage instead of the driveway.

Any suggestions would be appreciated.

Thanks NH Chapter!!!

sjg,
Welcome to FTE.

I worked in Nashua for a year a few years back but unfortunately I do not know any mechanics in the area at all.
Closest car guy I know is a parts counter guy who left Saturn and is now at Town Fair Tire or Tire Warehouse. I get the 2 mixed up sometimes.

I think I can ask someone but it might take a few days for a reply.

I really appreciate it. The dealer wanted to charge me $2800 w/o a new head and $3600 w/ a new head. Mind you this is for only one head gasket, not two.

Danm.

But Best Ford has always been pricey with everything.

I did my one 4cyl head gasket on my 87 Toyota by myself and it only took me like a week

Got a reply back and no help. They know as much about Nashua mechanics as I know.

Did you check Autofair and Grappone yet for prices? Might be worth a laugh at least.

Got a place. no personal experience so check them:
Precise Auto - Owner Dave
603-598-9113
91 Deerwood Dr (Next to Sunnyside Acura)

I know a guy in Manchester. Does decent work but he's a Chebby guy.
Douglas Auto - Mike (father and son team. Both named Mike) 603-625-5854
