~1k (parts+tools) if you DIY like I did.

I'd guess x2-3 if you have someone do it for you

aboot $3000 if a shop is doing the work, and roughly $1000 if you're doing the work. I don't know in Chicago but I was getting quotes of $3K-$3500 in California and I've heard others getting quotes around $2500 out the door. shop around

This depends on a ton of variables mainly what clutch you choose. Big difference in cost between a monster triple and an oem luk.

However, the oem clutch is $275, slave $150.
Average labor for a shop is $1500.
About additional $750 to rebuild the torque tube (bearings and couplings).
