Nice Mike.

I didn't see any prices on their site...

Oh,

From the title I thought we were gonna have to send this thread to the sandbox.

They don't list prices on the site. They did send a catalog and price list with my order. You can call and ask for prices. A very nice lady answers the phone and will give you the price for any part number on their site. This kit cost $60.48 and I also purchased a tap guide (the longer piece in the insert section shown in the pic) for an additional $6.30.

I did find vendors on the web that sell these kits and they can be had slightly cheaper, but every vendor that I called regarding this particular kit was out of stock.

Huh? Please give more detail. You mean pulled head studs? I suppose they would.

Locally, yes. I gave up loaning out tools cross country (pretty much). It's not cost or effort effective to loan out sub $100 tools cross country. You're better off buying your own kit. You know you'll need it again anyway. I'm at a point in my life when, if I need a tool, I just buy the damn thing. Again, because I know I'll need it again anyway.

Me too. 8 or 9 months ago when I looked for them I couldn't find anything but the $400 master kits.
