Received a LABOR ONLY quote to:
-Remove stock engine & Manual Trans and install a pre-built upgraded long-block, new clutch, New T56 Magnum , Harness conversion, New Driveshaft, Reinstall turbos
$3,080

-Wire in Cortex boost controller
$715
- Remove & Replace upgraded catch can

Just need a sanity check from you all on if that pricing is in line.

Looks mainly okay, Replacing an pre-provided catch can for $110 though? The first part seems (maybe??) right, still a tad high in my opinion. But what do I know?

That's not bad. If they are doing a full install, purge and start, not bad. Shop rates here are like $150 an hour for performance work. Good luck

Thanks for the feedback I feel alot better now.
Would love to do it myself but aside from not having a garage and lift I trust these guys to get it done properly and stand behind any issues.

Even I would go your route, and I have all tools, garage and the ability to do it. I think for that job, I would rather just drop off, and then pick up, done deal and you will get some type of short install warranty with it. Good Luck

To drop off and pick up with out any B.S that’s a good deal.

Having just finished a built motor install in my 2018, I would have gladly paid $3k to not have to do it myself lol. GLADLY.
