In conjunction to fixing my oil fouling issue, the dealer offered to do the following, claiming near 100 HP (over 100 if I had the heads ported)...
84-Up EVO 175lbs Prf (I believe these are valve springs, but couldn't find the part number they gave - 11-9252)
TC Cylinder Gasket Kit
Cylinder Stud kit
1550 Conversion Kit
Rocker Housing Gaskets
Cam Service Gaskets
Exhaust Gaskets
SE Rocker Supports
Perfect Fit Pushrods
SE TC88 HC 1550 Pistons
SE 251 Cams
Race Tuner Kit
Spark Plugs
Oil Filter
Oil
They are saying that half the labor would be covered by warranty to fix the oil fouling, so they quoted me $480 for the remaining labor. Their parts total was $1656.09, for a total w/labor of $2333.10 w/tax. They discounted the parts, but I found I could get some of them at an additional discount, but it only came out to a little over $100 less if I bought them through Surdyke or someone else with similar pricing. But, I would save the tax on the parts also if I mail ordered, but the shipping would come into it. They wanted an additional $300 for porting if I requested it. Something also tells me the rocker housing gaskets and exhaust gaskets would be warranty items.
Anyway, I was told the HD issue Stage II wasn't the best kit to go with and what they were putting together (list above) would be a better value.
Any thoughts?
