How long for pacesetters install?

The shop here in town said that since the install can be difficult, they can not give me an estimation on the install. The guy had a camaro before and talked about how the fit was not so good, and so they had to do other things to make it work. The shop charges $65 an hour and I would like to know how long it most likely would take. Thanks.

Another vote for doing it yourself. Its not difficult, just time consuming. A set of ratcheting wrenches of will help you out so much...you'll thank me for that piece of advice later.

Where are you located? I've seen several Performance Shops offer LS1 Header Install for ~250 bucks.
