Default Anyone know how many hours of labor for a Snub Mount + DVs Install?

Next Monday my car is going in for the timing belt service. Also having 710N DVs and a Vast Perormance Snub Mount installed as well.

Local High-end Indy quoted me $1200 for the timing belt service. Anyone have a guesstimate or know how long install for a snub mount and DVs will take?

TIA.

If you're doing the TB, the Snub is ZERO labour. The DV's should be 15 - 20 mins to install.

2 mins if theyre already doing timing belt, also $1200 seems a bit pricey

Default Is $1200 including all the parts for the timing belt service.

I paid $1080 for my timing belt service and snub mount install. That price included the timing belt, water pump, thermostat, etc (Pretty much all the stuff in the ECS kit plus the recommended tensioner). So I think $1200 is not that far off if it includes parts.

Default as everyone stated...if done while doing the TB/ WP ....no charge on the snub

we charge 1/2 hour on the DV's. I know of other shops in the area that charge 1.5.
