Michael, to answer your question more directly, you can't go wrong by getting estimates from FOH and JR. Search for Pinnacle Motorsports to get his address. Good luck.

Well, I'm not sure what your question is. The garage area is about what you'd expect for a large dealer: large, well-lit, well-equipped, and well-staffed.

They do VERY nice work, in my experiences. Steve Egyed runs the shop--great guy & very skilled at what he does. Runs a good crew, IMO.

Not sure on that cost--call & ask them.

What to watch for? They're slow during race season. Completion date commitments sometimes get "adjusted" outwards several times.

Anyone have a opinion on Ferrari of Houston service. I need my 30000 mile cam service on my 355 spider. Cost? What to watch out for with them?
