Anyone install the Cusco twin disk yet...?

How's the install...? pretty straight forward...?

Can i trust my dealer to tackle this...? what kinda time am i looking at...?

I have the OEM throwout bearing already, so i won't need that from them...

Any other advice would be appreciated...

clutch stealer! jk i decided i'm just gonna go on the Single for now still slippable just can't hold over 450 hp but i'll be no where near that... If you find someone let me know where there at...

I might hit up agile auto, i've been quoted 3.5 hours for this job about 300 bucks to install. thats with pro-imports at 62 / hour.

my dealer in Lancaster, PA is usually pretty good about doing **** for me...

and i assume they should be able to do this job without a hitch, as long as everything is just an "in and out" deal...

i guess i must have called Adam just a few hours before you did on the clutch...

300 doesn't sound bad for the install... that's what i'm figuring from the dealer... i'm gonna give them a shout and see what they tell me...

I got mine installed. He did the Clutch, SS Line and new fluids the whole way around for 500 (With Shell Helix fluid included at 75 a quart). Took around 4 hours.

That's a really good price. Dealerships here in CA usually charged upward of $1K for the labor.

I know they can do all kinds of work.

$300 is really, really low. Almost too cheap, makes you wonder on how they value their work. I do the job for $450, and im located near NYC. Anyone knows that prices drop once you get away from the city.

We get 4 hours to do it FWIW...

Cannot really "blame" the dealers...they are giving book time, or close to it...which is typical dealer pricing levels.
