depending on the place you have it installed it could cost more than the motor. if you have a friend whos a gearhead i recommend making a deal with him.
most places charge flat rate which means the longer it takes the more you pay. for example. flat rate is $50 an hour and takes 5 hours. your cost is 250 for labor plus various stuff they add. but flat rate is generally between 75 and 200 depending on where you are.

Flat rate is the number of hours a mechanic gets paid per job which is determined by the factory warranty time schedule or an All Data schedule if not warranty covered. The motor swap is a pain with the twin turbos and should take 10 to 14 hours depending on the rust. Most shops around Milwaukee charge $80.00 or more per hour. You will also be charged for any gaskets, hose clamps, anti freeze, oil, etc. Check the clutch while the motor is out.
