prob 2-3k? maybe less. spend another 2k on tune up parts/fresh clutch. the more you get w the motor the less needs to be moved over.
the packaging is tight, and TBH i haven't worked on these (my R56 was under warranty for my whole ownership). It's still just big kid lego though. Drop the motor out the bottom, dress up the wrecker block and zip it back in. In theory there's no wiring to do at all.

How much labour would I be looking at?

what's a shop rate these days? 180/hr? more? i really don't know.

Did any of the M156 AMG cars drive better than the others?
My exp is the E63 drove worse than the later LX/LD Charger/Challenger.

There was a short amount of time where I stopped wrenching because it was cheap enough to not wrench.. but at $180/hr.. back to DIY-ing.

every legit mechanic on the planet has an hourly rate posted behind the desk.
i just don't know what it is right now.
honestly sometimes i don't think you even have a car.
