Need mechanic to swap head on Perentie - Sydney or wider area is fine.

**FFRPerentie** · 11th October 2025, 10:58 AM

Hi,
I've got a refurbished head I need to swap over to my running Perentie.
It's been machined and upgraded to a better seal between the heads and includes a thicker copper head gasket.
I need someone who's competent at doing this, won't charge the earth, and to help offset the cost I'm very capable of being a spanner 'monkey' to help.

I'd be prepared to travel almost anywhere out of the greater Sydney area to get this done.

Any thoughts, advice or contacts would be greatly appreciated.

PS. KLR isn't available as they're booked out and too busy.

I was going to say KLR, but Davis Performance Landys are just around the corner from KLR.

I don't think any mechanical shop will appreciate a spanner monkey.

You could try Dave aka BlkNight.aus

He is Melb based mobile, but travels north regularly it would seem.

I recall the old sign in some shops. Labour $100 ph. $150 if you watch. $200 if you help. Or something similar.

Yes, know Davis Performance. I think they're too booked out to be looking at my vehicle at the moment but i will check... thanks.
