Check out:

He does good work, and pretty reasonable prices too.

Buy a video and get in on the atkins group buy. Costs around 600 bucks total. Done for under a grand and if it blows up again you can save yourself another 2000 bucks!!!!

I believe someone bought a brand new FD motor from Ray for $3400. Why not just buy a brand new motor?
