does that include a tune?
if not, then that's a ripoff.
An overpriced local shop, whom I have decided never to use, quoted a rate to me of $400-$500 for torque converter install.

$500 is a good price, average around the northwest is 500-750 w/out tune. They get like 10 hours book time for it and it is a TON of work, well worth $500... not so sure about $900!
