When I got my Valair last year it was a 400 hp organic and it was less than $700, can't find the invoice now though. IIRC I got a little discount for being FTE, might call and talk to Dan or Gary if you can. Oh ya I had to have someone do the install for me, that cost $400 and then did a rear main seal and up pipes replaced. The seal was leaking just a little and up pipes leaking too, good time to check that stuff when the tranny is out,

I've got a Valair clutch and flywheel in my truck and I like it. I didn't get the experience of a DMF to compare it to, but I don't see how it could be better.
