that time seems fair for RE and RE.

Removal of

sway bars, struts, lower ball joint, outer tie rod ends, seperate rack from steering shaft, rear motor mount, exhaust, remove from body and support engine, tranfer rack, sway bar, control arms to new frame and reinstall and alignment.

Considering all that 10-12 hours seems reasonable.
