personally im goin with yukon 4.10s($150), moser 31 splines($230), frpp carbon fiber clutch diff($280) and possibly c-clip eliminators.

sp theres your cost of goods for a good rearend, but labor varies greatly. in all honesty, if youre trying to stay in a lower price range stay away from performance shops. try something like cottman transmission. one of those real big i believe they charge like $50 an hour or right around there.
if you go to a performance shop plan on it being 2 or 3 times more expensive. not only is labor more, but they just cant do it in the same time as the guys who do it daily.

FRPP 31 spline differential, Alloy axles (strong/great prices and all hardware included) and of course your install kit and fluids
600 in parts max, labor at least 250-300!
