You hit the nail on the head on that one LOL! This is what I do for work, for play, to learn, and to be creative as well, and grab up some bragging rights by winning a big ol trophy, well all the sweeter too! Some are flat out crazy on prices, but, they have been tested, and proven as well. Some are the best money can buy, and be the best on the market, reliability is what most pullers, and engine builders are looking for. Then you have the ones that are junk. One pull wonders that run great the first hook, then blow up the next. Technology is changing in this sport so rapidly, over the last 5 years I would say, the number of pullers that have literally came out of the woodwork, and nobody knows where to find machinists to do the work they need to do. Most builders have had to add staff, buy new machinery to do the work more efficently ,and less man hours on the items they build. BIG MONEY builders have to be that way, to pay their staff and to keep their business going. These days you are seeing alot of smaller shops pop up that can handle the tasks you ask them, even coming up with new technology of their own, and good things are coming from these small shops. Quality, a good return time, and fair pricing is what we all want. Yes, there is alot of excellent shops, big, or small that will vary on pricing. Only thing I would say about that is pick a good machine shop, and work with them, the more work you can give the smaller shops,,, they can learn how to do the job better the next time he/she does the task the next time. Usually, when they get good at what they are building, the cost goes down due to less time in scratching their heads and designing the parts. ChadS
