Good to see you got things worked out
If they are doing a clutch, and "a few more things" then the price is starting to make more sense. I don't think most of us were saying anything Bad about Vettedoc.. more we were just wondering about the price, it did not add up from what you had in your original post.
Now since you've got more info as to what that includes seems about right.
Congrats and let us know the end results

i also have an insurance brokerage and there is nothing illegal about it..... if your nephew is 18 and licensed and dont reside in the same household then its a done deal..... if u gonna burn 13K at least make the insurance pay for it, but i bet when u tell the claim adjuster they are charging 13K he will luagh at u (or the shop owner)
and any shop that charges 13K for a ls6 install is NUTZ.... i dont care if they are "reputable"

I agree with those that say that is a WHOLE LOT OF $ for that engine, but it's yours so best of luck to you! It should definitely be covered under insurance though.

Hmmmm...I'm not seeing any reference to an insurance claim.
Perhaps VD is quoting high for insurance purposes and will actually
charge you less or let you slide for the balance and deductible?
And if you haven't made a claim, you should do so ASAP.
A $10K bill is exactly why we buy insurance.
