Price guess?
How much do you think a shop would charge to replace the rods, pistons, valves, valve springs, and retainers in a 2007 chevy cobalt? Just in labor.

That's impossible to answer. Every shop is different. Why dont you call some of the forum vendors and ask them for quote?

Round about guess:
Rods: 500 bucks
Pistons: 500 bucks
Valves: 500 bucks
Springs: 500 bucks
Retainers: 250 bucks

and then labor? Figure another 500-1500 bucks



Or just a new engine? If so get a junkyard one

Well let's start with the obvious question....

Is the shop pulling the engine?
