How many hours to replace cam?

[rb68rr]

How many hours should I expect to put in relacing my new cam? Which is better with stock heads, the 194/204 or the 204/214? Thanks, R.B.

I d go with the 204/214, i got one but havent installed it yet,as far as time- it would probably be an all day project or a good weekend one. probably 4-8 hours depending on what goes wrong!

Times 3!!!

Oh ya, if it's a replacement due to a failure, then it's drop the pan, clean the oiling system out, check the bearings, clean the oil cooler, yadda, yadda... add an additional 20 hrs....

It would be alot quicker and easier if the motor is already out of the car.
