SOUNDS LIKE A GOOD DEAL!!!
From PRJ:
The LIM gasket replacement would be $180 for the labor. Pulley swap is $20. PCM tuning is $50 for basic tune/setup and first hour. Additional tuning time is $25/hour. Extra $50 to hook up a wideband O2 sensor for tuning if you want wideband tuning done.

Don't really understand what the wideband tuning is (or what's so good about wideband)? Can anyone explain?

Wideband makes tuning WOT easier. For a basic tune that gets your fuel trims in line and adds a bit of spark advance (which gives higher mpg and more power, if theres no knock holding you back), you will not need a wideband.

Putting together the list for the 3.4 and my LIM fix
Autolite Spark Plugs 104
3.4 Modular Pulley System
160 T-stat non drilled, he said he would drill it
3" DP 304 Bolt w/ Cat O2 Bung w/ gaskets (Does that sound correct
LIM gaskets (Anyone w/ a link to the metal ones)
Aeroforce scan gauge (What other gauges should I get)
...still thinking of anything else I might need
Hopefully by my 1000th post I will be running a 3.4
Edit- thanks Zalfrin for the info

oil pressure is a good one to have, maybe vacuum/boost as the other if you're getting a 3-pod. I would get a 180 tstat, especially living in IN.

wideband is essential to tuning.

please elaborate, ordonez.... you don't use it until the last step of tuning (WOT).

Depends what you're going for and how much time you want to pay for (since hes not doing the tuning himself). If I were paying someone to do it, and I had to pay extra for the WB to be hooked up, I would just have them get my fuel trims in line and give me as much cruising spark as possible. Should be fine for a DD. If you're running at the track frequently, WOT tuning will be worthwhile.
