I'd like to set up this thread to get some interest going on purchasing parts from Charles R. Hill and having him fly up to install them.

Please post up what you'd be interested in purchasing from him or having him install. He can quote us prices and how many days we'd need and we can add up the costs and who's in etc.

Some ideas:

So far as having him come to install...

Intake and swaybars so easy a cave man could do it. Really. If you cant wrench off a couple bolts you shouldn't be around cars jk. Exhaust a couple jackstands and a afternoon of wrenching.

Suspension something maybe you might want to add to that install list. But ill even put on springs or coilovers for a 50 spot and a nice steak dinner. Im a cheap date.

*edit; spelled something wrong.

Interested in the bhr ignition solution? Short shifter.. maybe header(thinking about buying Fluid's header?

shaunv74

So I guess I can put you down for a nitrous kit then?

Shaun, I would possibly be interested in getting a AEM METHANOL INJECTION KIT AND BHR IGNITION UPGRADE install...

Short Block Rebuild if I had the $$$ that's all...

Ray - I need to check resources, and the compression seems to be coming back a bit. Stay tuned...

shaunv74

I'll put it on the list and when Charles and you talk we can see if you want to pursue it or not. I figure we dangle enough in front of him to get him up here and then keep him as long as possible!!!

I just bought the BHR kit for the ignition. I should get it mid March.

Might want to include lightened flywheels and clutch's.
Ray loves to do those.

shaunv74

Added... Thanks Easy. Hope things are going well and getting better down there.

Nitrous, alky injection, and clutch/flywheel swaps each take about 4 hours or so to do with my usual showcar-like attention to detail and I charge $450 and up for each. Hopefully, by the time this event takes place I will have the BHR/SPEC clutches sorted out and I can offer those. The BHR Flywheels are providing 100% satisfaction, though.

I agree that swaybars, intakes, and exhausts are quite simple and the group could all help each other do that stuff together. Really the same for the BHR Ignition System, too.

Short Shifter install, $50.
Exhaust header install, $100.

Nemesis and I already discussed his engine rebuild but that will be something I do at his place without an audience (except for Kevin, himself).

I could use that but id rather spend my money on materials for my 4 point strut bars.


Needless to say when this happens ill be there. I feel like shoulder perching.

I still have my Sohn adapter & clutch bracket sitting around also - LOL

shaunv74

Thanks for reminding me. Clutch bracket too!

shaunv74

Thanks Charles. Understand about the work with Kevin. I figure we can combine the event into a multi day trip for you to make it more worth while.

How much for the other items quoted above parts and labor if we purchase your parts vs. bringing our own?

Nemesis8

iTrader: (3)

Yeah, the rebuild is still down the road for me. But the other items are cool. Shaun update the first post to remove the rebuild - thks.

Charles R. Hill

iTrader: (7)

What, my parts and labor prices are too high for you guys?

shaunv74

I just meant so people know what it will cost them if they already have their own parts or want you to install something you don't sell vs. buying the full enchilada from you.

Charles R. Hill

iTrader: (7)

In these cases I view the parts sale and parts installation as separate transactions so whether they are bought from me or not doesn't matter.

dondo

iTrader: (7)

but you might want to mention that you can supply parts from various other vendors..

dannobre

iTrader: (3)

You mean that you don't install your stuff cheaper

I should come down with the clutch

I will come down for that beer we owe each other

dondo

iTrader: (7)

with your own car maybe?

dannobre

iTrader: (3)

Depends when it is..I have no UIM, engine harness..injectors, front nose...and about 50 loose wires to connect. If it's late March I should be good to go I'm waiting on some parts from the machine shop
