EnthusiastIs your mechanic pricing out a new engine, a rebuilt engine or a used engine? The price will vary drastically between the three.

If you have a really good mechanic they'll take care of you by keeping you informed about the reality of your vehicle because being a shop owner isn't just about your bottom line, it's also about helping people out (imo).
