Not true at all. Stock pump flows more than adequately.

Seems extremely high to me! $1000 is about the norm in my neck of the woods.

I guess I should have clarified things... 2900 for the entire thing...meaning, long block (30K salvage yardmotor) plus install.

that certainly makes a difference...not a bad price in my opinion...maybe could be still a bit cheaper, but u gotta pay what u gotta pay
