    Took a month to get the quote. Found out the power loss and cost $1.50 in parts and a little sore back. Had to copy the pdf file. And just a little editing, but I didn't change the facts.They emailed me the estimate.

    Ahh, what wrong with the estimate total?? Look like the ripoff's are adding two inframe kits and billing me for both. Don't you need just one kit for the engine?? Beside. Do the math the figures don't even come out right. The one year progressive parts and labor warranty.If they do a ###### job and pray it last 364 day. You in short, get prorate?:biggrin_2554:

    I think they were just giving you a couple of different options, and their software showed it as two separate services and added them together. You'd only be paying for one or the other.
