What is a decent price for install on cams?
 

What would a decent price be to install a set of GSR cams be? What do you guys think a fair price would be?

Re: What is a decent price for install on cams?
 

You're joking me, right? Hopefully you're doing this for someone else.

I'd charge like 50-60 bucks?

Re: What is a decent price for install on cams?
 

nope not joking. was just a question. i do not even have the cams. was kinda weighing the cost of the cams plus install for the few extra HP.

How much are oil changes these days? ???

Re: What is a decent price for install on cams?

How much does 8 feet of nylon rope cost these days?

Re: What is a decent price for install on cams?
 

Depends man. That twisted stuff is pretty cheap, but the braided stuff is stronger ;)

Re: What is a decent price for install on cams?
 

haha yeah but this mofo obviously has ---- for brians so they won't be weighing him down any. Looks as if the cheep twisted will do fine.

Re: What is a decent price for install on cams?
 

Any shop that is actual tryin to make money is gonna charge around 125-150

Re: What is a decent price for install on cams?
 

wtf? pay money to put cams in? drugs are bad son...

you're in everett or something right? give jeff a 12 pack of busch light and say pretty please

do you really think you need 8 feet?

Re: What is a decent price for install on cams?
 

dont you just 1.take valve cover off. 2. take cam caps off. 3 take distributor off. 4. take cams out. 5. put cams on.6 put distributor back on. 7. put cam caps back on. 8. valve cover back on. 9. retune. am i correct or do people like to ajust the valves too while there in there?

Re: What is a decent price for install on cams?
 

a valve job would be even easier with a nonvtec head since its so open. dood, do it yourself. will take u an hour and a half since u will be working slow as balls. first time i did it, i wasnt sure on the torque specs for the cap bolts, so i was online for 30 mins finding the info

Re: What is a decent price for install on cams?
 

you missed the timing belt part which scares lots of people, you would acually need to put the cam caps on before the dist unless you just want it to fall on the floor when you let go

Re: What is a decent price for install on cams?
 

i could do it yeah. i was just asking what is the going rate? I was just weighing my options. i found a set of GSR cams for $40. Just do not have the time to work on my car for a awhile. if i could find a shop to do it for 50 bucks i could just drop my car off before work and pick it up after work, PAIN LESS. but it sounds like those cams are going to be gone. No need to jump on sombody's nuts for asking a question.

Re: What is a decent price for install on cams?
 

what motor are you putting these in a b16a?

Re: What is a decent price for install on cams?
 

only that or a b17 would benefut grom gsr cams

Re: What is a decent price for install on cams?
 

yes i did miss the timing belt but i had 6.put distributor on and 7. put cam caps on. so no the distributor will not fall off. unless your chinese? i think sometimes they cant read english

Re: What is a decent price for install on cams?
 

i would put them in my d15b tripple y8 engine.



come on has there not been a time in your life, (Well those people that work) That only really have about 1 hour of free time between work/homelife that a man can just spend it relax on the internet or the other favorite place and take a ---- and collect there thoughts? I am looking at things as a whole right now with trying to buy a house working 9 hours a day with a 1 each way commute. Planing for a baby thats comming and making sure my wife has everything she needs in the mean time.



and yes it is a b16

Re: What is a decent price for install on cams?
 

the dist bolts to the cam cap right?

Re: What is a decent price for install on cams?
 

No shop will do that for 50 bucks unless its a buddy buddy deal. You guys are makin this out like its a an oil change. If your not mechanical and dont undertsand tdc/valve lash/installin a timin belt spend the money and pay someone.


If you know what your doin ya its not that hard but from a shop owner I wouldnt do that for less than 150. The rate of a shop is 55-75 per hour so go from there.

Re: What is a decent price for install on cams?
 

yea i'd do it for $50, but definately expect $100+ for a shop.

first time i did a cam swap took me about 3 hours of actual work, but lastest over 2 days.. started off going to take off the head then stopped halfway and just swapped the cams

Re: What is a decent price for install on cams?
 

Busch light are you serious? I cant stand busch :P

Donny-D-avan, swing it by and I'll slap them in for 25 bucks. I can do it in about 30 mins, including adjusting valves.

Re: What is a decent price for install on cams?
 

make sure you adjust them warm at idle :y

Re: What is a decent price for install on cams?
 

ok so maybe i cant type lol or make a list of steps. sorry for not respecting your authoritay. in my head it makes sence. but telling someone it usually doesnt come out with enough info.

Re: What is a decent price for install on cams?
 

little tough to be adjusting vtec cams while running.. its not exactly a sweet pushrod v8 :8

Re: What is a decent price for install on cams?
 

remember the first time i adjusted valves on a honda.

ring ring

"jeff im trying to adjust my valves and there is oil spraying everywhere... is that right? hahha"

Re: What is a decent price for install on cams?
 

wait.....what? you cant stand the taste of bushs... little bith you want me to send you a case of smirnoff? :8

Re: What is a decent price for install on cams?
 

Ya? out of all the cheap ------- beers IMO, busch tastes like ----, tastes like your drinking the can. I can drink just about anything else and everyone knows that fag boy.
