For an 05, is your car still under warrenty?

If not, I am like your CO, find someone else who can do it for a more resonable price.

Im taking my chances with Solid Tech. Should have my car back in 2 more weeks.


When I say chances, this is my 3rd rebuild, first here in NM.

how much are they charging u?

I am not sure of the final price right now. Though I am looking somewhere around 6k.

I ended up needed a new block, and pistons. So I am going with a Benson sleeved block in 89mm. 2 mm over stock.

Labor rate is not bad. So far all my questions have been answered in a timely manner and Sean has been very helpful.


The main thing is not knowing till they tear down the motor. This is what I am thinking since Honda said that.

Just talk to a few shops and go with your gut feeling.
