Transmission Swap- What should it cost me?
Well, it's finally time to for the 4l80E. FLT will be providing the tranny, and it's now a matter of having it installed. My local shop has quoted me $850 for the tranny/new TC install. I know this is probably a bit high (they usually are!), but what should I be paying?

Thanks for the input so far! I presume the prices you all have paid are just pure install cost. For that alone, the shop has quoted 8 hours. Fluids/tuning/adjustment is an additional $200 with the dyno time.
I'd love to do the installation myself, but I'm afraid I'm without the time, tools, and experience...
Starting to think that $800 out the door is expensive, but not outrageous for top quality work.
