Not cheap... Pulling your motor buying 4 extra shims - time doing it buying all the sims - reinstalling...
Probably 600-1000 unless you do it yourself... (just a guess) -Jerod |

If its already out it won't be all that bad...
I'd rather pull the engine then try with it in the car... IMHO its just easier... |
