I would say that here in ATL that is a very good price! I had one done at a local shop here at home and my cost was 975$ over 2 yrs ago.Hope all goes well .

Sounds extremely cheap to me ... how does the guy stay in business ???

hmmmmm....... I would say it is his location...... lol its right next to the drag strip literaly spittin distance from his drive.....

Sounds like about $100 cheaper than the machine shops in Portland, Or/Vancouver,Wa

hmmmmm i guess i didnt get to bad of a deal......the guy is real honest to about it...... I told him if it needed it to do it cause i didnt want to do it again......and i wanted it to be pretty peppy and so that it would run on pump gas......

im sure he could of really bumped the numbers on up there if he would of wanted to.......
