Re: how much would this cost to install

Around here the going price is about $300 for a gear install.

Im guessing around $400 to drop the tranny.

Not a clue on headers, if the shop charges $60/hr, figure ~8hrs work = $480

That's doubtful on an LT1. LS1, maybe, but our engines are a pain in the a**. I know, I did mine my self and it took a long time and sucked really bad. I'd imagine most shoups would charge around 450 -500 minimum if they'll do them.

Might as well invest a couple hundred in tools and learn to do it yourselves.

Re: how much would this cost to install

I dont know about where you live but I live near Chicago and at a place called Speed Inc. they do LT1 headers for $425 I just got a quote the other day. PS: make sure you do the plugs and wires at the same time.
