The pulleys and install is $500.00 plus tax on the parts. Not sure on the price to corner balance. I will find out for you though.

To corner balance will run about $250.00, or around 5-hours Steve said.

You never know what you'll find when you start working on a car you haven't worked on before or has been worked on by someone else. We'll see how you did on the coilover install. You should have the car aligned before we corner-balance it.

You should bring it in with about the amount of fuel you expect to be running at the track or autox so we can be fairly accurate. Plus, we need to weigh you.

You might want to be in the car during the alignment, also. I don't know how much it matters, but I'm sure there will be some change as the weight in the left front seat increases.

Were going to get some weights to put in the drivers seat so we don't have to have a person sit in the car.

Sounds like fun. Good luck with it. I'm sure once you get in the grove you'll be fine.

What's your topic?

I wrote a 20 page paper on Water Rights in California and could barely make it fit into 20 pages.
