I will be picking the Vette back up on Wednesday the 18th

What did they charge to do this? I wasn't too worried about my car because it has 8k miles but the more I read online it seems it can happen at as little as 5k miles.

Sending you a PM

Adam if you provide the heads we can do the labor for cheap. We've done several sets of heads cam swaps on the z06. Actually have a local guy we use for street tuning that's real reasonable. He's got a 900+ hp LS based nova.
