I assume that you're talking about the transmission vacumn modulator? Get another estimate at a transmission shop.
The parts cost(high altitude)$126.00 from Ford.
You must remove the catalyic converter to remove the heat sheild to remove the modulator. About an hour and a half job R&R.
Don't forget to replace the vacumn hose ends at the intake manifold.

You can replace the modulator by removing just the heat shield
and if you have a short 8 mm box end wrench although my hand looked like a cat had gotten a hold of it by the time I was finished. Good luck!
