Wow I Finally got over the sticker Shock from Saturday and desided to post. I think the guy must have thought my name was Allen From NE or something. I could have sworn the man said $90.00 To Turn 10 thousands off my crank shaft. Well If you guys remember my post from last week when I said the block and head were a brownish color. Not Anymore They look like they just came from a casting place where they were made. {Beautyfull}He said they just got done baking them the other day when I saw them and after that they has them shot blasted with steel shot.
So between the crank being turned and the head and block being cleaned and magnafluxed it cost me $242.00 plus Tax. EEEEEHHHHHHH Like I said he must have seen me coming a mile away. I figured $180.00 at the most. And by the way he also took all the plugs out of the oil returns and pressure cleaned them for me to. But he forgot to put the soft plugs back in. I guess I will need to find new ones or something. So Iguess its going to be awhile before I can order the motor Kit. Gotta get mom ma something nice for valentines day for putting up with me and my RED TOYS all year first.
