Well you have to drop the rear suspension to start,and you have to make sure the engine is supported to a certain point to make sure it does not fall in to the firewall,check this guy out: http://www.cajundude.com/c5techhome.htm

Sorry no labor hrs

Might as well replace the clutch master cylinder too. I went with the remote bleeder. Should be easier to bleed down the road.
