Well i'm not about to do this in my appt complex so i'm going to take it in. I need my exhaust manifold gaskets replaced (the number 1 cylinder gasket is breached). I assume all 4 should be done while in there. Also i want the spark plugs changed out as well since i dont think they've been done in some time (and they were hard as hell to turn even a bit on my own).

Any thoughts on what how much an indie volvo/import mechanic should charge for this, in terms of hours or dollars. At least the parts cost is minimal in relation to everything. I assume all the exhaust manifold studs should be replaced at the same time, right?

Thanks
