Re: Just Quoted $800 For Plugs & Plug Wires

If someone told me $800 to replace plug wires and plugs I think they'd be laid out of the floor before I knew what I did. Did he have a gun on you? I'd take that quote as attempted robbery. I'd be thinking twice about how much business I'd do in the future. Are you sure you haven't been ripped off in the past by them? I find the shops that charge the higher amounts do the crappiest work. I just changed my plugs and wires. Took about an hour and parts were under $100...using Taylor 8mm wires. I have Hedman Torq-Steps and run the wires up. I ask for '75 Vette wires because they were run over the valve covers and had HEI.
