8" I believe 255's but they are hard to find so I went 245's when I was stock wheeled.

I would guess 1-1 1/2 max. hrs. x labor rate. Some on here can do it faster. It's not that hard with the right extensions but my headers make it a breeze now Definitely harder on stock EM and AIR makes it a little more PIA. Read the writeup on install university and do it yourself. Then put the $$ saved toward some headers or something
