I'm going to sweeten the thread a little. Tell a friend, Winner gets a $100.00!

Look at the parts listed below: ??? POST>>How much is it going to cost for just the labor turn Key??? Taken out the old and putting in the new
I want you guy's to take an edcuated guess on how much the labor will end up costing on the project, all I can say is it is $95.00 per hr.
To make it fair I'm staying out. When I get the final bill I will post the winner. Good Luck hope you win!
One guess and make it a good'en
3 Rules:
1. If you go over the total your guess doesn't count!
2. If for some reason there is a tie the earler post will win.
3. Once your $$$ guess is posted you can not edit it. VV
If you make a error in the post let me know and I will change it and re-post it here. All money amounts are in U.S. DOLLARS VV

Let me know if your going to be testing the boat on a weekend. I'd like to see those numbers rather than reading about them
