Very cool. What are they charging for the rebuild?
$ 1050 carry-in/carry-out for rebuild.
They do amazing work so I'm told.
When we were offloading it they said they have several on the shelf ready to go, or I could wait 3 days for mine back, same cost...
$ 1,100 for local shop to R & R w/ new clutch and surface flywheel & front main seal.
Then I jacked it up another few $K to do the timing belt and water pump (20k early but good insurance), take care of the leaking valve cover gaskets, and spark plugs, oh spark plugs I hate thee! The owner of the shop swore it was only going to be 1.5 hours labor, I'll pay that gladly.
Wasn't planing on it but luckily we spotted the leaky heater core when the transmission was coming out, that's gonna suck the last of my savings!
But it's 16 years old, 200,000 miles, and rust free, so.....
