I done a few swaps for friends and now people want to pay me.
Ok so i've done a few swaps.
I work for the local honda dealership and i know all the flat rate labor times but how much should i charge to do a swap??
I have 4 lined up all b16s into civics and crx's.
I dont want to rip anyone. I dont want to rip myself either.
thanks honda-tech.

The motors are coming from Nagano Japanese.
I am not going to add a thing to the cost of the motor, just labor.I am trying to work a deal with them for 4 swaps.
I am estimating about 12hrs each.Maby quicker after the 1st.
All in all its taken about a week per swap(that is working a few hours per day after work)
thanks.

$300 to remove old motor and $300 to install turnkey b16
i would charge that at the most.

I know inline pro charged a I know $1500 to pull his h23 from his prelude and put in his h22 and that was plug and play. But I would think $500 to do the whole swap is a good price. you have to remember it is all profit. and It should take a day to do a whole swap!!
