Congrats on the sale I hope. As far as charging If I'm doing mechanic work I'm $55 hr about 20 below shops here and any fab jobs I get I give a bid to start and then cost of material on top so If I need to I can make up some cost if necessary.

The Edelbrock X-C8 is a crossram as is the famed optional DZ 302 crossram. The Edelbrock version is slightly different is all.
