Might not be that much. if the plug snapped off , and the shop is able to get the old plug out leaving the threads intact, posstibly a 3-4 hour job, but if the heads need to come off..... yuck. The book says the motor has to come out to replace the heads, it is possible to remove the heads in the vehicle, but it is not really a time saver, and is a royal pain in the $%#, You have to set the head down in with the head bolts already inserted in the head, you stand a real good chance of tearing the head gakset, or scratching the deck. I did it once this way, and I will not attempt it again. Much easier to do it right once, than have to do it twice,
