Does 750 seem fair to install headers

I was wanting to get the TSP 1 1/78 headers and the only shop that will do it in town (garage/customs shop) wants 720 to install.

If you got stands and their a direct bolt on style. Their super easy to install yourself in an hour and half or so. I cant see charging more than 100

I might be able to manage actually "installing" them, but I can't weld/fabricate. So I pretty much have to take to a shop.

It's really not that hard, just need basic tools and an extra set of hands helps

You might get lucky and find someone to help you install.. Mine didn't require any modifying or fabricating. See if there a camaro 5 club in your city....look in the regions,states section

That is ridiculously high. Sounds to me like it's a case of "we don't want to do it, but if we're gonna be better make a fortune off it"

Most premium headers require no fab work at all. Just unbolt at cats bolt up new
