Default Finished Product

Well, I went in and picked up the Olds at Clear Image in Kent.
I was told it would be ready Monday at 5 PM so I showed up a bit early.
They were just finishing up.

The fellow doing the work brought my attention to a coolant leak which he
said he just went ahead and fixed.
He also went around and got the right pressure in the tires.
He knew it had been in storage all winter.

They also told me that with the headers installed, some of the spark plug
wires would end up touching the header so they put some right angle ones
in where they were needed. No charge.

When I got the bill, it was less than the cost that I was quoted at Stan's.

Long story short, I figured I saved about 500 bucks and I'm totally happy with the job they did.
I'd go back in a minute.
It was like getting service at Les Schawbs, on steroids. LOL...

Here's a few pix of the "Tri Y" headers. They were custom made for this car.
