I have a B.C Rich Warlock that plays verry nicely, but the one huge problem is.... There is no tremelo.
Is it possible for you to gut the thing for me and install an FR Pro (or some similar tremelo that works the same)???
And if so, what would the cost be?

Yes, I can do that. I assume there are trem versions made and that there is space for it there.
The conversion would cost about $400-450 with a black Gotoh Floyd Rose trem. An Ibanez Edge or a Floyd Pro would be more as the trem itself is more expensive, but not any better.

More than its worth. There may be room on the FB for seven strings, but the FR 7 string trem is made for a wider FB, nut and pickup, so it won't work anyway. Plus, seven strings gats with six string scale length generally suck too.
You'd be better off saving some bucks, selling that guitar unmodified and get the guitar you really want. Have a think about what would be your dream guitar, every little peice... and I'll see what we can come up with. I assume a FR equipped seven string with at least one EMG and shiny black paint is a good start

YEAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAA, black and shiny!
I might just do what you sujested, i suppose that for the money i would need to spend modifying this GAT would cost more than selling this one and making my own.
What would the average price of a 7-string project be, with FR tremolo and a few good pickups.
And remeber... it has to be black.
