Motor swaps are so simple once you actually do or participate in one.

With labor, it sounds like a fair deal.

But that's just my opinion.

I mean your looking at, just under $2000 in parts alone.

ls motor swap - $1000
gsr tranny - $5-600
auto to manual conversion - ?
stage three clutch - $200

Labor cost is at like $90-100 per/hour these days. Do the math, with the auto-to-manual swap, and the motor install itself is a good bit of time. Assuming the tech is pulling the existing motor/trans and installing the new platform.
