  • Hours of labor

    How many hours of labor 1- should it take for a shop to install a cam 2- should it take for a shop P&P the heads on my car? I just wanted to ask cause that is what the price depends on.

    One of my friend works at a shop and says that they look at a book on what they should charge. A 8 hour labor could take 5 or 6 hours, but they are still gonna charge you as 8.

          Word!

          Anyone can take a dremel and go to town on a set of heads, but I'll go with a company that has experience with our motors and has done lots of research.

            I don't think he's looking to spend that much money.

            Anybody know the estimated time to do the cam swap?
