Motor/trans mounts
I wanted to get the forums opinion on the cost of replacing the motors mounts and transmission mount.
I got a quote from a good Indy shop and wanted to know if the quote price is good or not.
Quote is $718 subtotal for parts and labor (just tax has to be added) is this a good price?

Yeah I talked to the guy today and he went over explaining the details of what has to be done. Lifting the motor removing some k member or something a bunch of stuff. I think he is giving me a good deal because I help train his son.
I asked him about replacing the water coolant inlet and outlet o-rings on my turbos as when I took it in to my current Indy 6 months ago to chase down a small coolant leak.
It turned out to be the inlet o-ring on one of my turbos just a small non-lethal leak.
Replacing all 4 o-ring on turbos (2 inlet, 2 outlet) $40, cost of procedure in labor to be able to get the the inlet top lines $600. The bottom lines they can get to as they outlet at the bottom of the turbo. So needless to say I didn't get it done plus being winter and not driving it much I figured I'd address it later when I tackle the mounts. The same procedure of jacking the motor up has to be done so when the mounts are getting replaced they can get right to the top inlet lines. So hoping just a $40-$50 cost since there would be no labor to get to the turbos that would be done with getting the motor mounts prepped for replacement. I will let you know.
