I paid like $20 for the beer to bribe buddies to come help me when it was time to take it out and put it in. But I did pretty much everything else myself to get it ready to take out and back in like removing all the accessories, headers, intake, etc. So if you add in the price of food and drinks for me, probably $100 I'd guess
