It all depends on if you do it yourself (cheapest but most time consuming), go to a Chevy dealership (most expensive), or find a reputable & honest well skilled mechanic...

DO NOT go to a Jiffy Lube or places of that type.

I have no idea, but mechanic prices are skyrocketing.

Easy for me to say, but I would do it myself. The advantage of DIY is you can buy the best fluids available, know they are being used and not just being charged for them, and learn skills that apply to all your cars. The first time you'll need to buy a few tools etc. but they will pay for themselves.

Read some of the stories of people that have taken their dry sump cars to a quick change place and you'll be convinced to DIY.

There are hundreds of people here on the forums that can answer your questions along the way and give you advice.
