Its funny he mentioned flying.

Even if you paid my round trip ticket, it would still cost less than the dealer, and it would be fixed properly

Are you any type of wrenching guy or does it seem like too much?

Bottom line you need a little head work. Your engine is fine, trust me. Been there done that with many custoners.

I had to pull the IM with the head.
Remove the alternator, the belt tensioner, and the black intake manifold support bracket. Becomes easy at that point

Sadly, that's so true. I'll keep that in mind if things don't work out. I did find a friend that is willing to do the labor. Mind if I keep in touch with you if we hit any trouble along the way? What parts am I going to need to do this repair? Thanks in advance

If I was in his shoes I'd fly billman out to florida,
round trip ticket to NY->FL->NY ~200$
repairs + diagnosis: can't put a price on it, but having the peace of mind that an s2k god did work on your engine then some dealership wrench, priceless.
+ could have all the minor tune ups done at the same time : I.e. upgraded TCT, valve adjustment, infamous TLC fix etc.

I would buy all oem Honda:

8 AP2 retainers, 16 AP2 keepers (honda calls them cotters) just order parts for a 2004 s2k. use them on the intake side.

8 exhaust valves, order for a 2003.

Valves can be expensive....I'm going to assume your intakes are NOT bent. So you may save some money here in ordering. Either way, you need to pull them all out and have them checked by a machine shop to be sure they are straight

head gasket
10 head bolts
intake gasket
(no exhaust gasket, it can be re-used)
2 gallons type 2 blue coolant
hondabond sealer (for sealing the timing chain area of the head gasket
valve grinding compound and a hand lapper
