well depends on teh shop but more than likely your looking at 60-100 per hour and depending on who dose it could take awhile id say your looking at a good grand + save your money and do it yourself its simple easy to do and well worth it if you dont have tools then either rent or have a buddy help you do it you can drop it thru the bottom or get a motor cherry picker and yea pop it out thru the top///

It really is cake to swap in motors when it comes to honda's. id say do it your self, but i have no idea what it would cost for a shop to do... because everyone does the swaps themselves or with friends.
I did my first swap when i was 17 and even then , it wasnt complicated. A basic set of tools, minus the 32mm axle nut is needed.

All this stuff I've wanting to do it over my head, lol. I want to do a cable to hydro conversion, and a few other things, so I plan on just getting a friend to do it, or someone to help me/show me how to do it.
I actually had it priced from a local shop earlier this week and it was about 600+ depending on if something goes wrong.
