You needed 6 of that size, and 6 more of that are 14" ($19,000 ea.) in diameter and one for the balance piston ($26,000 ea.) for a rebuild.

When buying parts from GE. We have a saying. "You might find better, but you won't pay more."

In my eyes, the prices for the VooDoo13 parts are in line for the volume that they sell of them.
Hahaha absolutely love the saying you and co. have come up with! My father is retired from Hughes Aircraft/ Raythoen I've heard similar tales from him over my lifetime.

I also see eye to eye with you on the corresponding Voodoo13 pricing
