I would like to know where to get 2 exhaust valves replaced at a good price on a 93 talon awd,at,turbo. I bought the car with a miss & after a leakdown test it showed the exhaust valves leaking on #3. I would also like to know what mods would be smart while the head is off. I don't have the confidence to do this myself & usually if it CAN go wrong, it will with me......THANX

Well, air was blown into the cylinder to see where it comes out. I guess leakdown isn't the right term.
