Check engine and trans pricing 

in addition we should also just double check the price of the engine and trans is accurate ,
you can see from cents column if it has been priced recently ,if it has been priced in last 60 days then generally no need to double check 
if not go back to pinnacle and check price ,if required update in pinnacle ( add in applicable c for this month) 
then if required update in bid buddy

PRICING --WHEN BIDDING MAKE SURE ITS CORRECT 

LINK TO VIDEO ENGINE PRICE ADJUST FOR BIDDING

as the engine is a major item we must make sure the price on the bid is correct ,so we will always cross check the bid price unless we know its up to date i.e has a c figure that is less than 90 days old 

so we check the price ,if no c figure we open pinnacle and chekc the price ,if price needs updating in pinnacle we update that while we are there and then go back to bid and update price 

in bid notes note that engine price is altered ,if engine price is ok we note as ok in bid notes
