Can do your core for between 100-125 and a 5 day turaround time usually I believe alt restorers want 250 or so in addition to waiting several weeks or even months , its gotten kind of ridiculous.

Paul
I tried what you sugessted and they acted disinterested amd it took forever.
John sr died in Sept of last year and John Jr is getting overwhelmed and that put an xtra load on my guy who started getting all of his custumors. Combined with having surgery it put my guy behind. he said he would get mine done quickly so I have got it worked out. Same old problem people that are good at something are way behind. Probably should have just called him before I went to redneck.

No kidding. My shop in TX charges $48.50 to do the alt, and the case. I plate the pulleys, fans,nuts. washers,ect myself.
