Default is this a decent price for a slave cylinder install??

i talked to the guy who normally works on my car and he usually gives great deals, he said labor for replacing slave cylinder would be between 200-250.00 plus the cost of the slave cylinder, is this an average price? wheres the best place to get a slave cylinder? i found one on ebay for like 76.00

That's not bad, considering that you have to drop the transmission.
And $76 for a slave cylinder... that's pretty good.
Keep in mind, though, a OEM slave will cost you $123. And that's the whole sale price.
I would be sceptical towards any ebay knock offs, because your slave cylinder must be machined precisely. Otherwise wear and tear will take it's toll rather quickly.

Yeah, that's a good sign. He's not raping you on the part, as he is selling it to you wholesale.

200 isnt bad. Why not do a clutch while you are in there?

Stick with GM on the hydraulics on these cars.
