- 1972 Mach 1 Q Code
Having some headers installed on my 72 Mach 351c 4v and was wondering if you guys could tell me about how long it should take? I have the same shop where my car is for accident repairs doing this install. They are trying to charge me for 4 hours of labor to bolt them to the block. They have a lift to do this with. I’m pretty sure that I could do that in 4 hours in my garage on the floor with a bad arm!
The headers are the Hooker 6915 Competition black ceramic coated ones. I know that they fit very easily with no modifications. I have had them do a complete engine rebuild, plus other stuff and they are trying to hit me up for 1,680 bucks for them! 635 for the headers, 260 to remove exhaust manifolds and install the headers, 685 to have a h-pipe made up and connected to the headers and then connected to the existing mufflers and 100 to trailer it there and back. I know that they have to mark stuff up but this seems a bit much.
I sure would appreciate any and all responses, thanks
