is it really that much time for an experienced shop? You figure 2.5 hours to remove the trans two hours to swap in the new parts and three hours to put back together and the mandatory oil change. At about $100 an hour labor that's ~$800 and another $600 for parts.

Yeah you're right that's too low.
