Just don't compare LT4 parts/Labor prices with the older ZL1 LSA platform... it's completely different.

- HD RPM Series Drive Belt
- Roto Fab High Flow Cold Air Intake
- 160 Degree Thermostat
- HD Crank Seal Kit
- ARP Crank Bolt
- Brisk Performance Spark Plugs
- Dyno tune w/credits

Price: $3,600

To add headers:
- ARH 1-7/8 LT's
- ARH Xpipe

Price: +$3,100

So total for all of that installed and tuned: $6700 + tax (obviously).

Does that seem high to you guys? After pricing out the parts themselves, it seems around 40-50% of this is labor(unless I am calculating this incorrectly).

Do it your self...

I kind of feel like outright asking for the labor cost might be a bit forward of a question.
OK that is spot on. I think my tune was $1,100 which also included the TCM unlock fees as tuning of that computer as well.

And in no way should the shop be offended. I would absolutely be asking what the labor rate is if it is not explicitly called out. The shops I have used always have it listed right in the quote.
