Default shop price?

does anyone who does good work for a reasonable price to install a tranny?

I called one place and they wanted like 800. I called another one and they wanted 850.

800 seems about right for labor. I would probably do it for 500 or even less but im in Cali.

300 dollars on labor swapped right in? Damn thats what i charge for full D/B series swaps in 88-00 civic. But for a H22 thats alot more labor, 300 is beyond cheap.

i did my swap without the use of air tools, i thought i needed air tools most of the time, but really all i needed was a big rachet possibly a torque wrench and some long *** Break bars,,, u should be good! But im poor and cant afford to have mechanics do my stuff

also when me and a friend changed his tranny we had the whole engine outta the car, (since he was doing a swap neway) and it was still tough!!! getting the tranny off is easy but putting it on... damn u gotta line it up all perfect i still dont know how we did it. I wonder how hard it would be with the engine still in the car... Well maybe u should goto a mechanic! Goodluck on finding a good price :]
