Another, and possibly a better option, is to go to Southern Star Automotive located on Roper Mountain Rd not far from Hwy 14. They are an aftermarket German-focused Service facility with a very good reputation. I've also had them do work for me and have had discussions with the owner who owned an SRT-6 at one time. As long as your issue is one that is related to the R170 chassis, they will work on the Crossfire.

And as pizzaguy has suggested, the thread on the repair of the breather covers is a good one. My DIY experience is included, but I used a different RTV product than most others. And my car has shown no signs of leakage since repairs were completed. I also used corrosion-resistant screws rather than the softer aluminum ones during re-assembly. And the screws I used can be re-used if required. More importantly, they can be re-torqued w/o fear of shearing off. I also recommend re-torqueing the screws for the breather covers & valve covers every couple of years depending on driving habits. I have found that the valve cover screws loosen up over time when I check. And like I stated before, my car shows no signs of oil leakage. And I for one (like others) believe strongly that an important factor is technique / procedure during the repair. .

If you need any support on your Crossfire, I'm over in Simpsonville area.
