Doing it yourself=no labor cost. I don't have a labor rate manual, so I can't be exact. However, my father, who has over 45 years experience says about 8 hours. Most shops I've seen charge at least $75 an hour. So, it looks like about $600 for labor.

Buy a Haynes or Chilton's Motor Manual and do it yourself.
