Default Labour cost for sleeves

What should one expect to pay for putting in sleeves at a machine shop if you provide the sleeves?

in labor cost you looking at about 150-200 which is about 3-5 hrs of work

the sleeves are not the costly part of it its getting someone to install it properly.

Anyone installing sleeves properly would charge a lot more than $150-200.
A good shop charges $150 just for a bore/hone of a stock block.
