Yup I can't even imagine spending that much on a single part. I was actually quoted $600 for this job or any similar engine removal job from a new mechanic that specializes in Lexus. He seems to be the smartest and cheapest out of anyone. He know how many hours the job took right away. So if anyone in the NYC area needs the best priced mechanic around for any big jobs let me know I'll be more then happy to put anyone on. It's in queens.
