Peter,

These kits sell for about $ 1,200.00 if you buy them one at a time.  PTG or
Bekkers are the two best places to source the kits.  I was able to
negotiate a deal for all the kits PTG had on hand this past summer at $
850.00 if we took them all and paid in cash (there were six available and
we did take them all).

I'm assisting Peter S. in setting up another group purchase for them now.
Rick Randall at PTG has told me that some parts have changed on the oilpan
and he will get back to me on it (no detail as to the changes).  I doubt if
we'll see an $ 850 price tag again though.  Stay tuned.
