      Pretty much. If you want cheap/good work it's going take forever, If you want good/fast work it's expensive. That's the mind set of all machinist I've dealt with.

      BTW that fiat is pretty cool. I've grown quite partial to the Hillman Imp as of lately.

            He did my short block for the racecar. I dropped it off after you did, and picked it up 2 months later.

            I wont go back there.
