I'm not sure of an installation charge, but if you want to save some money (about $30) on a shift kit, e-mail me if you're interested...

Just do it yourself. I think TransGo kits even come with a video- you can't get any easier than that. I've other f-body owners mention prices from $100-$200 for a shop to install a shift kit.
