As I remember, I paid dearly for what was then a "state-of-the-art" computer and engine management software system that worked with Windows '98 in what was then a very user friendly format. Perhaps you can recall other tech breakthrough's that have since become much more affordable (basic pc's, dvd's, plasma tv's, to name a few...)
Just looked on Beck's website- still sells a 383 LT4 for $12k... pretty easy to get that up to $16-18k when you add in ignition, engine management, and NOS grade parts. Factor in the premium paid back then for that computer/software and "paying" him to figure out how to install it and program it...
I don't doubt I paid to much for the thing... at this point, I don't care. I just want to know what I can get for it and if it's parts are worth more than their sum of the whole.
If BRE were in the business of ripping off customers, I doubt they would still be in business today... I guess I was the sucker
