RE: $800 gear install?
Just got my car back today, 3.73's done! WOW
Gear set (FRPP 3.73's) $179.00
Royal Purple (2qts) and Ford Additive $32.00
Labor 4 hrs @ $75.00 / hr = $300
Total: $511.00
Brought the car in yesterday late afternoon, got a call noon today it was done (also got Steeda UDP's done for $274, pullley set was $199 plus 1 hr labor)
...and NO gear whine!!!
Really shop around, looks like the going rate is about 500 or so, screw 800 bucks thats a total ripoff!!!

RE: $800 gear install?
z06 killer that would be really cool.. it would probably cost around$120 in gas and 6 hours of driving but if they can do it cheap and quickly it would probably be worth it.. only problem is after doing gear installs I don't think you are supposed to be doing extended highway driving on them.. but maybe im wrong?
