No, thats turn key.. The difference is the way the store software functions with an item like this. The original item is just the parts, when you open the item the first stage of our labor is automatically added to the net price, then as you open the pul downs you can add labor as stages as well as options.. Anyone who actually opens up any combination to read further will see the price go up as the first stage of labor is automatically added because to make it a turn key labor is necessary.

There is no other way to do this with the store software.

remember, I only did this to help people see what the prices are for the engines. We still build each engine application and customer specific so variables will occur but are gone over in the first phone chat we have.

For many years I required a phone chat with the customer to divulge any pricing at all and that was due to the vast range of things that go into a build and the prices are still variable based on these things, the store offerings only make it easier for guys to come to us already knowing general pricing. If it ever becomes problematic or causes a complaint I'll just disable the offerings and go back to the fool proof way that worked well for the past 15 years..
