do your research, short tube headers run more power. just think of the PITA it will be if you have to take your car in the shop for tranny repair, it is extra time to pull it cuz the long tube headers are in the way of it. i see them here all the time and i charge an extra 1.5 hours for the removal just to get the tranny out. shorty equal length make better power anyway and also give you GOOD ground clearance. but to answer your question, it would roughly cost you (labor only) about 3-4 hours, 300-350 bucks.
