How much did you pay for labor to replace your clutch, flywheel, and slave?

If the engine is out, it is much cheaper. If not, labor runs $500-1200 for clutch and flywheel install.

the Alldata calls for 6.5 to R&R clutch, another 1.0hrs to R&R flywheel. So, it would totally depend on the Labor rate the facility you go to charges. My dealer quoted me 480$. Anyone paying more than $550 is getting ripped off. There is no reason to have to pay more than that. Alldata and Mitchell are the same standard for labor hours.

Awesome setup rwj383...WOW, I have the Same mods as you except I have a fuel regulator, and thermastat, and I am getting my off road xpipe with no cats finished thurs. I also have a spec stage 3 coming in early next week. Since we have the same mods and same nx shot, I guess my car should dyno in the same as yours. I did a dyno before the nos and hit 320.4 rwhp. So you are only 3hp more. I had NO idea we were at almost 700 pounds of torque after nos HOLY SH#$).
Oh to your question, here in florida, the r&r is 9.2 hours and the dealer is charging me 730+tax just for the install. Thank god I have vette mech friend that has a lift in his garage. :D He is doing it for 500 bucks...
