I dunno about price, but to give you a comparason, i got estimated $1400 on a g160 for a full rebuild using just standard parts not performance. I thought it was a bit steep but i haven't had the chance to find somewhere else. |

so very very true, i work for a engine rebuilders only as a driver :p but i can tell u all u are only paying maybe half your price in materials the rest in labour, for example, i have an engine being built at trade price and not paying for labour, i have spent $1100 so far and the boss said if i was paying for labour etc. i would be up around the $3500 mark, so yeah just puts it in perspective.
cheers |
