how long?

[nonpoint86]

I just went to see how much it would cost me to have my cases split, resealed, new main bearings, and a gasket kit would cost me to have installed and they told me 60 dollars a hour I didnt think this was this bad untill he told me it would prolly take him 5 to 6 hours to do this job is it just me or does this seem way to long I was personally thinking 2 to 3 hours tops plus on top of it I have pulled the motor already and have the gaskets and rings also so that should save me a lil money from them having to order them but anyways just the labor time is what I am wondoring about, tell me how long you guys think this would take.

you gotta remember there trying to make money and its not theres so theres no hurry for them

5 to 6 hrs! Did the guy just graduate from engine building school? That sounds a little long to me! Labor shouldn't cost you more then $150.00

If you have the stuff already, and have some basic mechanical skills and a few tools. You might as well do it yourself. Then if you do run into a problem just ask theres plenty of us on here that have done it before and we can help you with any questions.

yea true I could but I prolly would end up f*cking something up I would just rather have the shop do it just dont want to pay 6 hours worth of labor I think that is a joke im just gonna have to find someone else to do it
