I have seen people on the forums quoted from $800 and up...most around $1K. It's not a complicated job, just time consuming with very small areas to work in.

I think anyone who is slightly mechanically inclined can do it, you just have to take your time. Having a lift would be nice. I did mine on jack-stands.

That's why I mentioned in the other post that going with a brand that others have already had success with really makes a difference. Even the best fitting headers are a pain to install. If you get a brand that isn't pretty much a perfect fit...it just exaggerates the work.
