Did you call around to several shops? If not, try that and you will get a ball park estimate for the area I would imagine.

If it saves you $500, it would be worth waiting until you could check with more shops. If you are mechanically competent, you could do it yourself. Look up some good instructions and get a buddy, couldn't be that hard, just time consuming (especially the valve springs).
