I personally have never done it but, 450 for freeze plugs, thats all labor cost. If you have the time and tools might lookinto replacing them yourself. I know i bought a refabbed block for about that price, and your just getting new freeze plugs... just a thought.

I would get a second price, I think they should be able to reach them by only removing the exhaust manifold at most.
