Price for Installs on Headers & Pullys

I got quoted...

$300 for Alpha Werks Headers...$350 if welding required...

$300 for UR Pullys...Alt., P/S, Crank

I've been trying to get in contact w/ Scalbert on the Header install cause I really want him to do it, but I havent heard back from him, So I'm not sure whats up...

Do these prices seem pretty high to you? They seem quite above average from what I've been paying for installs from this place...

I paid like $150 for my Shocks to be installed so...it makes these seem out of range...

that's BS - tell them $300 TOTAL for both jobs, or find another place.

Check with TireStar in Chambee, GA. They installed my springs and aligned my TL-S for $290. They said they would install headers for about a $100.

However, Scalbert only charged me a 12 pack to install my Comptech headers. Only took him about an hour.

This was about two years ago, before a job transfer from Atlanta to Chicago.

Those are some expensive install prices. I had my headers and pulley installed for 150cdn. You might want to shop around some more.

You guys keep saying that the header install is easy.

Well mine must've been rusted on. Almost every bolt I on the had to be cut off.

I don't know what it was but mine was definately not a driveway job.

The Alphawerks went on perfect though.
