    BRRacing in Los Gatos. Going to be doing an oil pan replacement next weekend for a lot cheaper. Contact them via email at BRRacing@gmail.com

    They can also order the pan for you if you haven't already purchased it.

    We charge about $420 to do the oil pan and tack weld the oil pump nut. I think I've also got an oil pan I can sell you personally.

    Sounds good. Give us a call at the shop to setup an appointment, 925-479-0797. I'll set the oil pan aside for you tomorrow, just make me an offer similar to what you see them going for online.

    definitely recommend edge over any other shop in the area. STAY AWAY FROM TOP QUALITY

    i used to work there a few years ago, and he is EXTREMELY shady.
