Hours to Remove & Replace Engine?
Anyone know the standard estimate (hours) to remove & replace a mid-80's 911 engine and transmission, assuming no other work is involved? I got an estimate of 20 hours from a mechanic who occasionally works on 911's, but somewhere I think I've heard an experienced Porsche mechanic can do it in as little as 4. My '84 has multiple oil leaks, including crankshaft seal, and the best way to deal with them all probably is to pull the engine. I'm just debating whether to give the work to someone who'll charge less per hour but take more time, versus someone with more experience who may charge more per hour but can do the work in less time.
