Hello all, my first post.

I have just pulled the head from my daughters 1998 S70 automatic and is non-turbo. After a catastrophic water pump failure, the timing belt jumped it's track and the result is many bent valves. I have sourced a wrecking yard head for $150. I plan to send it to a machine shop to make sure it is sorted.

Here is the situation. Car needs to last for two more years until she is finished with school. Car uses oil, a quart and a half between oil changes, and is other wise a nice car. (ps I wonder were the oil is going.....head or lower end?)

I see timing belt kits, that include water pumps and belts and idlers and tensioner's and such at various price ranges. I will also need all the gaskets for the head.

Where should I source the "timing belt kit" and should I get the $500 version? Also where should I get the head, intake, and exhaust gaskets. Also will need fuel injector o-rings.

Lastly, can I re-use the head bolts?

Thanks to you all in advance,

Shannon
