I have very little, if no, free time. between going to college full time and working part time i am swamped. How much would you guy spay for header installation to be done by professionals? This is like the only way that i can have headers put on unless i wait until nest summer(not gonna happen).
thanks alot

I would pay no more than $600.00 for smog-legal EDELBROCK headers including installation. It's better to have it proffessionally done that to rush it yourself and risk screwing something up. My headers and installation will run about $525, and that's with a discount. Good luck.

350.00 is a very good deal. I payed 500.00 for my setup including dual pipes and istallation of two flowmasters.

Hold on there, 350 just for labor, correct? That isn't a great deal. That 600 was including the headers, I believe that is about 250 labor? Anyway, its a big task and people like to charge a lot for it. I had found a shop to install them for 150, but I havent phoned them up so I can't be sure. I ended up doing them myself.
