>Martin, What was the labor cost to install them?


Here is the entire bill, I provided the springs and retainers:

1)  O.H. Head  -  $146.50 (cleaning, disassembly, and assembly)
2)   12 guides $42.60
3)   B/I (Imagine that means the machining of the seats) - 6 seats - $123.50
4)   Shave head  (0.145 inches to 9.5:1 compression) $142.60
5)    Valve guides -$23.04
6)    Valve gudes - $25.32
7)    valve seats  -   $47.04

As to the cleaning, I do not know what process they used.
