Good Shop in Northern New Mexico?

Gents, I don't have my shop set up nor my tools moved in and it looks like the head gasket on my Blue Dog needs replacing. Can anybody recommend a good diesel shop in Northern New Mexico? THANX, H.

Yeah, we're here. Actually that's whats really cool about NM. Its like AZ or CO without all the freakin' people!

Rocky Mtn Cummins said 1500 bucks to do the head gasket if nothing's wrong with the head. Sounds a might high to me, but what do I know? I'm asking total strangers for help on the INTERNET!!!

If they do it right, it's worth that.

You're absolutely right. Good friend of mine's old dad used to say: "If you want economy, you gotta pay for it."

Truer words were never spoken.... H.
