Default which is harder to install headers on LS1 Fbody or C6 Vette

as the title says,can anyone give me feedback on this. I've installed headers on both my LT1 and LS1 Fbodys and now i have a guy that has loads of money and a C6 vette offering to pay me to install a set of headers. He's been asking me how much i want and which ones to buy and all of this stuff,and i dont even know if i want to do it b/c i dont know how hard it'll be, if it isnt that bad i'll do them though(can always use the extra cash on the side,lol) but anyways how hard is it and how much should i charge. I have a lift and a load of tools at my disposal so thats no big deal, also which headers should i tell him to buy. I was thinking LG but what are some other good ones, I always hear how LG is the best but I want to give him some options. Thanks guys!

Ive done many fbody and vette header installs. A vette with LG pros is the easiest by far, and i dont have a lift. After the old exhaust is out, youre about 10 mins from having the headers in their hole. Both from the bottom.
Pm if you get around to it and get stuck.

ARH's are a breeze on either set up.
