rebuild and port questions
ok I want to know what you all have to say about this deal:
-new apex seals (atkins 2mm 2pc), viton oil o-ring inserts n(atkins aftermarket), e-shaft thermal pellet replacement (reliability mod, atkins aftermarket), front/rear main seals, coolant seals, dowel o-rings, tension bolt seals, and all external gaskets come in the kit. Things like injector o-rings and grommets do not come in the kit-
-extend port the 5/6 port auxiliaries only and cut out the NA exhaust diffusers in the ports-
around $1900 this includes labor for removing engine which is $600 so if you suck at math its around $1300 if I took the engine out myself
is this a pretty good price? anything else you'd recommened doing while the engine is apart? just give me some feedback

$1,300 for part and labor is not bad, although I never saw your explicitly state that all soft seals (i.e. corner seal inners) and o-rings would be replaced.
$600 is too much for engine removal. I normally charge around $200 for that job.
