Default LT headers install?

How long/many-hours would it take a professional to install longtube headers? I'm eyeing up my next mod since getting my car back. Nothing better than starting a mods to do list after almost losing your car lol. I am in no way capable of installing these with my dad who has become lazier by the day at manual labor around the house and cars. Thanks ahead of time!

Most shops will charge ~6-8 hours of labor time.

Really, well since no one answered for a while I just did research and I saw a trained mechanic and his helper should be able to do it in 3hrs. 4hrs at most including switching the mid-pipes on these cars. Thanks for the help! I am probably going to do this as my next mod since they don't show a huge gain in rwhp numbers for the price, but the et/trap gains(more than 5 tenths of a sec I've seen on average w/an o/r mid-pipe) and powerband reshaping really shows how much they help.
