I need to know how much the average mechanic would charge to change my exhaust manifold gaskets for my 1988 Ford F-350. It has a 460ci V8. (7.5L).

I already have the gaskets and would prefer to have someone put them in for me.

If anyone knows what the average shop charges for the labor and all that nonsence of this job let me know.
 
You think this is a real easy job. It can be easy if you have the right tools. One these tools is a welling set up. Without it you have a good chance that the stubs will brake off in the head. Even with it they can brake off. Then they hap to be drilled and taped out. The head has to be tape to clean it up and repaired. Call a couple shops and see what it will cost. It the number hours the labor manul say time the amount the shop charge per hour. It will hold together if it has broken studs. It will damage the exhaust manilfort and blow the gasket out again.
