Default Not exactly Hybrid Question... (Head, Valvetrain)

What's typical installation cost of something like i/e cams, cam gears, valve springs, retainers?

I soeak from personal experience but you should talk to Rob @ robdaddy@mail. He would do it for a fair price.

I guess it would honestly depend on who you take it to, but expect to pay between $200-$500.

MAKE SURE you get it done from a reputable shop/person. Tuning is also very important with the cams/valvetrain.

Maybe if you're lucky someone locally can help you out.

ITR - cool...

YDragon, thanx, I was lookin for a ballpark figure. The V6 is substantially harder and costs more (having 2 heads and all), and I kinda wanted just a general idea. Sweet.

Chilton 2000 labor guide; 10.7 hrs. labor.
Add gaskets and fluids.
Depending on miles, t-belt and water pump,
your almost there, but it will be some more
labor time.
