Pricing for anyone considering a SC build

[Key]

Here's the pricing for my Whipple build. This is through Livernois and includes LT headers as well as some other things (dyno tuning for instance) so I suspect it may be more costly than if you were to just have a speed shop put the SC on your truck. However, it is a good benchmark for anyone wanting to do a pretty good Whipple setup!

Thanks for posting. Sure is a ton for labor.

It's the LT. headers that racks up the labor cost. Livernois will be removing the motor from my truck to do the install.

CCC pays 8.2 hours for the R&I of the engine. So with the additional operations/fluids I guess it makes sense the labor for that alone could be $1000.00. Adds up quick i guess. So you are shipping or driving the truck up there?

LT's are definately a b***h to install in these trucks.

Alternative off-road did mine for $780. Just saying.

thanks for posting! Don't know why they are pulling the motor though. I know they had to jack mine up on one side to install the headers, but maybe with the oil pump, etc, it worked out cheaper, idk. Again, great post

Great build , its over priced . i have the Whipple SC with ARH headers upgraded oil pump and "special fuel pump by Livernois" and tune by JDM , all the job done by Ford dealer and the total of $11k without to pull the motor out . I'm personally don't like the way they conduct the business by up selling unnecessary parts and services . just my 2c

Agreed on several issues. LT headers are a bitch to get on. Period. That invoice is overpriced by about 3k for sure. Did all mine for about 12k. And I had more stuff done. Not me, a tech. No need to pull motor. But I hear they do good work.

My sc install was 11k not counting headers. Got headers done later for another 2.5k.
