Ha! Sorry, I hate it when people leave you hangin...

Got it back, been driving it a few days. It seems to be shifting fine, I guess time will tell.

Would I recommend them? Yeah, I guess.

Their $1350 quote turned into $2500 by the time they were done, including the $100 tow. Guy explained (or claimed?) that every moving part in it was either seized, scored, or shattered. I knew there were issues beyond a typical rebuild, so I can't call him a liar. He offered to help find another used one to do a basic rebuild on, but it would've been just as expensive, and this way I got all new internals, including a valve body he says he didn't charge me for.

So I dunno. If he did everything he said, I think it was very fair. I wasn't in a position to watch it come apart, or go back together, or even see the parts they replaced. So it's not really fair for me to question what they did or didn't do.

But I still got a little of that "Did I get hosed?" feeling...
