probably normal, why not do it yourself? Is custom exhaust work needed to make your exhaust connect up to the headers? If so, then $300.00 isn't too bad if it includes that as well.

LT's require cutting and welding. They have to cut a section of pipe just ahead of the cats, then weld a flange that mates up with the headers.
