Re: (RobMan8023)
springs and shocks aftermarket = around $600-700. Chances are he won't go for oem stuff.
That is your valve cover, I think there used to be one sold called power gaskets? It's basically a bolt on job, do it yourself. The gasket itself does not cost alot (I'm thinking <$40). So basically it's like at high $800 for all parts, with suspension being the most expensive. And that can be installed for free if you have close friends.
Chances are this guy knows what these parts cost and is just trying to grab an extra $1k off the price. But hey it is a recession and people do need money. Hopefully this helps.
