Default How much does it cost to install a shift kit?

I just want to see the average cost before I make my move. Thanks.

I know the shift kit costs $127 (Transgo kit).

I bought a B&M Transpak kit, $55, for my '88 conv. I have my trans out of the car because I'm installing a 2400rpm stall converter. I talked to Bowtie Overdrives in Hesperia, Ca. and they said it's about an hours labor, $50.

I remember paying $75 about 8 years ago to have a shift kit put in my Grand National. I'd say by now expect to pay $100.
