742 sure grip set up question

Found a 742 case, clutch style sure grip and 3.91 gears fro a local guy but it is all apart. Local shops are wanting between 350 and 500 to assemble and set it up. Does that seem like a fair price? and or can I do the assembly and set up myself? Seems like when they come up for sale on the forums they are 550 to 600 ready to run. He is asking 350 for all of it but when I figure in the set up it seems like a lot to pay.
