    Default Any ideas how many hrs. a shop could bill

    to R & R the Upper Oil pan gasket on the M60 manual? Gonna take the 540 in tomorrow morning to look into my oil leak. Trying to prepare for any eventuality beyond the easy Lower Pan.

    depends how they do it, id hang the engine and drop the crossmember, probably be in the 4 hour range, make sure you actually need a upper and it's not a timing cover or that bastard left side motor mount bracket that the oil lines run through to get into the block (4 o-rings total)
