Work that needs to be done

Ok my car has been acting up so i dropped it off at my mechanic that has done a lot of work for me. He actually had the car a little more then a week ago putting in the gears, new trans mounts, and new oil pump which set me back about 1500. Well over the weekend after i had gotten back it starting acting off so i dropped it off to him on weds. He calls me today to tell me that the front ABS center is going, the engine is throwing a bad distributor code, and that i need a tune up. This all sounds right, my abs light came on once and my passenger front rotor is all scratched to hell and all the other ones look good, my engine has been sounding crappy and running pretty rough. He wants $2900 to replace the ABS sensor and tells me that he can only get the whole sensor and hub new for $519 they don't just sell the sensor, a new distro cap is $580 and 9.5hrs of labor, and then there is a the whole engine tune up. I really dont have that kind of cash right now, but if thats what its goin to take then its what I'm goin to pay, but i dont want to get bent over becuz im a kid and love my car.

I just want to know if the price is in the right ball park you know
