Anyway, I would like to get a recommendation on where to take it. I live in the extreme northern tip of Loudoun County, so Leesburg VA, Frederick MD and Harper's Ferry WV are all about 10-15 miles away. Thanks in advance. '99 Contour SVT

While you're in there, a nice lightened flywheel and SPEC Stage 1 clutch would make nice add-ons! The SPEC combo kit includes everything- slave cylinder, flywheel, clutch disc, and pressure plate. Easy! I would quote between 18-24 hours of labor for everything, but I charge half of what shops do (usually- Depends on the work).
