I was quoted $1755.00 (Clutch + Pressure Plate + Throw out Bearings + Labor)
Personally, that sounds steep to me. Anyone got a ball park range for this sort of work. And would anyone like buy this car before the work is done.

I love the car, but thats a lot of $$$$ and I don't think I'm gonna be able to find a dealership or garage that can do good work for a reasonable price. I live in the DC / Baltimore area and if anyone knows reputable shop the reference would be appreciated.
Strategic suggestions are welcome.
Thanks!
Wow...that is a lot! I'm getting a CenterForce dual-friction clutch, Billet flywheel and a new adjustable quadrant put in my 03 Cobra next week and it's not even that high. I would shop around. You can get the parts from Bill Jenkins or http://www.fordpartsonline.com and have a small shop install them for less. I'm having mine installed by Horsepower by Herman. He's in Crofton.
