Post Starting a shop...anyone need anything installed? CHEAP

This basic price list only applies to LS1's, but it can be figured for LT1's, 3rdgens, 2nd, etc...

Rear end gear swap $175
Rear end R&R $150
Heads $500
Cam $400
Heads/cam $800
Valvesprings $75
Engine $1,000
Clutch $200
Torque converter $200
Catback exhaust $100
Headers/y-pipe $250
Lowering springs $175
Shocks/springs $200
Nitrous $200

If it's not on the list, let me know and I'll give a quote.
I used to be a GM tech and have 4 ASE's, and have worked at speed shops for 1 year.

I'm still negotiating the lease agreements, but the shop is in Hurst, right across from Bell Helicopter on Hwy 10. So far it's going to be a one-man operation.
Sorry I don't do throttle body porting.

No I dont do welding. I'm sure Kinney's could do a good job. I know it's a muffler shop, but they have an awesome reputation.

Yup thats the one
I haven't officially started leasing it yet, though. But I should by the end of this week.

That's a trip that you live right there! I think I saw your car the other day..
I have the navy blue 99 TA with a WS6 hood.

well that's the first time I've heard anything bad about Kinney.
If rckrzy1 wants to make the drive, he can go to Hobbs Racecraft in Duncanville. Bryan Hobbs is a friend of mine and does the best welding I've ever seen. He specializes in tubular frames, roll cages, custom headers, etc etc... 972-283-1515

Dude, thats hella easy. There is like...8 bolts tops involved in that. But Jasons good

As for you guys wanting tranny's redone, look up Ken Whitlam in The Colony, Texas. He's AWESOME and is cheap too. I forget his number...Jason, help me out. BTW, tell him Brandon sent you!
