+ 300 to 900 hours. ( if you had to pay or if you charged the labor to make the swap)
but then for the last 6 months that we know of,, you have spent a min. of 4 hours every other day +weekends of 8 to 10 hours, and that comes to more than 1100. hours.at $20.00 per hour =22000+ the 2100. so so you have about $22000.00 in it so far,, that is very good, as my turn key V8 from Rudy was very close to that.
great job, keep us informed.. jim
