Title: approx. installation cost?
Post by: Dave_EH on January 21, 2005, 09:54:44 AM
Hi guys,

Would anyone who is a mechanic or has had experience paying workshop time for the following be willing to throw a ball park figure for what the following would cost - going on the rate of about $50-60 an hour?

Installing
cam
timing gear
dizzy
fuel pump
cylinder head swap
setting up cable for carb instead of linkage

I have all the gear ready to go - its just labour.

and whether or not the engine must be removed?

Regards
Dave

I'd be more worried about whether you brought your angle grinder or not... I think I'd have to start measuring the height of my car...   :o

Cheers for the offer though, its most generous of you.

Dave ;)
