Just fixed them again this weekend, they were definatly dragging a bit, however because I recalibrated my SG the GPH is higher at the same TPS. I also cut one coil from the strut springs, that brought it down almost an inch and added a high flow catalytic converter. Inspection is this week, therefore some much needed maint. needed to be done. Hopefully pass the inspection with all the mods that have been done since the last.
Sounds like this mechanic gave you a square deal. Good labor prices on some not so easy jobs, hopefully he didn't short cut it.

Yeah, my passenger caliper was bad when I had pads done about 10k miles ago.
My SG has to be way off. I've yet to break 37mpg on any trip with it even though the tps is reading 20-21 at 55mph at 40mpg. It should be reading a lot higher.
Yeah, he does good work. He is a certified ford mechanic and was out of work for a little bit. He works at a shop again, so he just did me a favor and worked on it over the weekend.
