    The last one I had done was $165 - and he b!@#$ed loudly as he quoted me firm price and it was a lot more then expected regardless of the fact that he had everything in hand first.

    that not bad ...really on price . i not going to post how much i get for a job but it,s abit north of that. some jobs can be a real pain in the ass if it .s been pluged up and welded you have to cap stuff off and make sure your not opening up someones plugs .can be a real can of worms . some of the great deal cranks do not have counter weight were it needs to be alot of drilling or truning the counter weight in a lathe or need more weight. heavy metal$$$. bad thing is some race cranks are starting to come this way with a very lite counter weight .so at this point we start to drill ream for a press fit plug of heavy metal like this
