Default Master cylinder replacement

Hey guys I'm pretty new to everything that has to do with the transmission/clutch and I was just wondering if I took it to a shop with the new master cylinder how much it should run me to get it replaced and bled?

It depends on their labor rate but I believe somewhere around 1.5-2.0 hours at that rate.

First if you can wait till 5/18 I would recommend getting a Tick master or at least do the drill mod. The master is fairly simple and if your somewhat mechanically inclined you could do it yourself.

Paul is correct on the books hours so the labor could be anywhere from 100 to 200 bucks. If you do go with a stock master and the shop watch how they do it so you can do it next time.
