Default How much will I save?

Not sure if it was covered already. Really didn't know what to put in the search block. So I just decided to ask away. How much money will I save if I do pretty much all the manual labor on installing a K24 in my hatch? I know I won't be able to run the fuel lines or whatever it is that has to be done making it a returnless fuel system. Just pretty much an estimate is all I'm looking for.

About 4-5 thousand. Depending on where you go.

Not sure I'm seeing this right.

How much will you save if you do it yourself?

The cost of labor. It will cost the cost of the engine (longblock).

What I'm saying is I'm going to drop the motor,tranny and all that stuff in with a friend. I'm sure there are some things that I can't do in my garage. So I was asking how much would I save if I drop in the motor and stuff and then took it to a shop to finish it up. Versus just handing them my car and the motor and telling them"put this in and make it work".
