I highly, highly recommend using Motorsport gears and Rearend Specialties.
With what they quoted on their site (480 including gears), you wont find a better deal than that. I remember years ago when I went to them, it was 375 for labor and I brought my own gears, so this sounds like a deal.

Go return the gears you bought and head down to RearEnd Specialists - They charged me $350 for labor if i get my own gears and if i get it from then it would be $430 alltogether Had it done in 35 minutes too and came out the parking lot spinning

If you wanna save some cash, have them installed by some experienced installers on the board:

I've seen people charge $150-200 for it, if you have your gears already. Just trying to help out.

Stock to Performance in Concord does good work. They can do anything on Mustangs, Camaros or basically any custom hot rod.
