cluth labor?

def blew my clutch today in my 03 evo 8 with 60k on it. i smelt it this morning and by 6pm it won't do over 20. just wondering what people were paying in labor if i were to try to pick one up through one of the vendors/ppc. i know it won't be exact just trying to see what i'm looking at.

Sorry I did my own clutch so I can't tell you cost. I can tell you that if you can find a reputable shop that will do the job for about $500 its worth it! I've done penty of clutches in other cars and the Evo clutch job isn't my favorite car for a clutch job to say the least.

Depends on the region. Northeast average is 600-750, some shops do more than others.
