Exclamation Camshaft price?

Anyone out there know how much a shop would charge to install a camshaft on a 95 gt with them supplying all parts, i dont know what kind of camshaft yet but just a ball park estimate. or if someone has had it done and knows.

Thanks

yup, If you do it in the car...radiator has to come out, upper and lower intake, drop oil pan down a tad to safely remove timing cover and reverse to install, of course that is just the main things, there a lot of steps I'm leaving out
