I just dropped $1200 on a water heater. Wish I could have done that myself. Broke as a joke now.

I saved easy $10,000 doing the furnace replacement myself with the help of my brother-in-law who is an HVAC tech.Originally Posted by going4speed
Figure the price of two HVAC techs, (48 hours labor) cost of the fittings, boiler and stack. The furnace I got a killer deal on from my sister who works at a distributor, a $2000 savings right there. Fittings and pipe alone ran $600. One contractor wanted to charge me almost $1000 PER FOOT for insulated stack pipe in the quote.
----- please, I'll do it myself.
I wish I know how other people do it, the stuff is hellish expensive.
Was just crunching numbers for the boss over repairs I do "in house" at work rather than handing off to vendors. Since the beginning of the year $8000+ savings on labor and figure I save 50-100% savings on parts. Not blockbuster numbers I guess but beats throwing $10,000+ a year out a window.

The prospect of getting a 150 pound water heater up attic stairs by myself with a bad back does not afford me the luxury of holding onto my $1100. Even those two twenty year olds had a hard time getting it up there.
Frank your package is boxed up and my wife is dropping it off at the post office this morning, US Priority.
Thank you for your patience!

Gary, do you happen to have any good condition front motor mount brakets lying around? There's a local kid who needs one and the only one I have as a spare has a crack below the top trans bell housing bolt hole. That seems pretty common though.
I might, I'll look tomorrow

I was wondering If you have a t2 air box and piping ?? also do you still have any of the t2 radiators with the I/c and fans bolted to them, how much? shipping will be to las vegas nv 89121, thank you in advance for your time.
Are you looking for a complete TII setup air cleaner to throttle body? hoses, air cleaner, intercooler/rad? Shipping to NV isn't going to be cheap.

I have two TI/TII center carts for sale for $20 each.
One is a core for sure (loose on the exhaust side) the other was pulled from a good 87 TI.

i have a radiator and intercooler, just need the air box and piping ( I/C to turbo, air box to turbo, tb ect), and I/c to radiator brackets since I don't have those but though about just making some. I was asking about the radiator and intercoolers as spares I was curious about the shipping cost
Got a 52mm throttle body left?
Do you happen to have any good hood insulation pad for 87 GLHS? thanks john
No, sorry

Do u happen to have a 52mm thorttle body and a 87 logic module?
Yes on the TB, and the modules I have are TI/TII 87 external map socketed boards.
I do have a few 87 "GLHS" internal map boards but I have not tested them yet.

Ok, im just looking to use one on a core charge. How much for the throttle body and the External map logic module?
I doubt you want to pay for a tested and socketed board if its just going to be used for a core.
