Hey Ed thanks,

For whatever it is worth they keep asking if my car has California emissions and the part they said that needs to be ordered costs about $340 and they said it would be about $400 with install, my guess is that it is a catalytic converter for that much money but I am not 100%, I am waiting for "Bob" to call me back from Waltham Ford since he is the guy who handled my work and conviently he is on lunch...I will post back here after I hear from him with the part number and also after I talk to Duddie/Herb Chambers....This isn't the first time I have had to fight with them over service costs....




I think the Pre-Cats are $900.00 a pop. So changing both of them runs about $1800 just for the parts. Then the labor is about 4 hours so that another $400.00.
