Good evening,

The intake gaskets pay 4.1 hours. Average labor cost per hour is $120.00 which means about $500.00 plus the gaskets which are about $60.00 to $75.00.

The thermostat pays 3 hours in labor plus the housing which includes the thermostat. Add 2 gallons of coolant for about $30.00. The housing is about $225.00.

It is not a cheap repair.
