the reason not many workshops do good jobs is the owner of the vehicle is not prepared to pay for a good job

i just got asked questions about a conversion and they said they are goin to get it done at the place with best quote

these days unfortunately u get what u pay for

workshops will usually loose money on conversions if u take all the time spent times by the hourly rate

then u get a quote and take it down the road to another workshop
and get a better quote

everyone is undercuttin everyone just to get the job and in the end u pay little and get a shit job

if u pay little for a conversion then u shouldnt be complaining

if u goto some of these workshops that have done the conversion b4 they might be able to give u a print out of a similar job with all parts needed and used so u can get a rough price

some workshops change water pump and timing belt on every conversion which is good cause u dont want the owner coming back complaining bout water leak etc

so just remember most of the time workshops get the blame just because the customer wants a cheap job and then has problems

im lucky i do everything myself so i would hate to see the money i would waste if i paid people to fix my cars
