that's way too much for labor only.

For $1000 I would be sure that covers all labor costs, complete installation with no ECU codes of the GSR swap, and all manual tranny conversion parts (ie - hydraulic clutch system, clutch pedal installation, master cylinder, etc.)

yeah they said that they would provide the clutch and everthing.

im kinda new to this swapping stuff. what do you mean" with no ECU codes of the engine swap?

Re: engine work... (aNothuRgSrCivic)
 

that when the car is swapped and the auto to manual is done also, that no check engine light comes on. I bad ECU code will make the check engine come on.

Like he said above, make sure that you get it ALL for 1000
