60 year old wood and stucco house. Perimeter and pier foundation. Significant subsidance (6-8 inches of drop) interior and exterior cracks. Some doors and windows stick. Would need two sides jacked (?) maybe 15' to 20' to the side. This would level the foundation to allow for repair and renovation.

You have not provided nearly enough information for anyone to give you an answer. A "perma jack" contractor is likely to be far more expensive in San Francisco, Ca than one in Birmingham, AL. How many lineal feet of foundation need to be raised? What type of soil do the footers rest on at the present time? Is the foundation poured concrete or concrete block. You get the picture.
Best advice is to have a structural engineer draw up a set of specifications to remedy the problem and then have several contractors bid on the project. You can then make an intelligent buying decision.
Good luck with your problem.
