If you get parts and charge as you illustrated no probs, 20% over cost seems to sound VERY fair. Like was said before I am really ok paying extra for the parts (they are rare as f#ck), just not excessively. I anxiously await advertised pricing for the components (if anything works out  ).

PS. You do sound like a really great guy. Good luck on the Getrag parts, we are all pulling for ya

Rob,
Sorry...I wasn't actually taking it personal just trying to be up front.
I had already thought of the monopoly situation as well.
MS being the best known example-though in Gates & Co. defense they generally aren't to bad in price and they work pretty well-usually
I received a short email from my contact and he gave me my price on 2 of the syncro parts.
I have a copy of the 5 speed price list from CRS that Iceeagle sent me and I wish there part #s and mine were easier to match up. But I think I've got it.
The first one sounds great:
MR166920 (caps pnc#22559) CRS#C74-(I think) CRS price $68.00 my cost is $48.32 with a 20% GP mark-up your price would be $60.40.
The second I believe must be a typo-(I hope)
MR166742 (caps pnc#22545a) CRS#C45-(again I think) CRS price $70.09 my cost $179.60. I'm guessing that somone got happy fingers and its a typo. I just can't believe the 1 in there. Probably means 79.60 & just hit a key wrong.
He asked that we get a complete list of everything that might be wanted & then I'll fax it to him. He is out of the office all of this week so there is time.
When he returns he will check availability & provide prices.
It would be nice if all the parts go like the reverse syncro ring price wise but I don't know if that will be the case or not.
Thanks,
Howard
