Was that heater put in at a dealer? That seams kinda high to me, and I worked at a dealer. It paid 1 hr to put it in, for the starter maybe 1 1/2 hrs labor or 2, and the starter, remove the intake and prop it up and 2, 10mm bolts hold it in, starter about 200 bucks( a good one, not autozone please)

When removing starter, note if any shims are used between the starter and mounting surface. If shims are found, reinstall in original locations.If starter is noisy during cranking, remove one .015 inch double shim or add one .015 inch single shim to the outer bolt. If starter makes a high pitched whine after engine start, add .015 inch double shims until noise ceases.
