How many hours to do top end rebuild???

Had an instance not that long ago where the oil pump failed on the D3.

Had a replacement pair of heads fitted as damaged old heads.

Has anyone else had this repair done at a garage and if so how many hours were you charged?

Just trying to get an idea if what I ended up paying was sensible!!!

I think the easiest way to remove/replace heads is with the body off. Having just had 4 out of the 6 glow plugs done, the heads off was the worst case scenario.

Somewhere between 24-30 hours would be about right, depending how easy everything came apart

I thought initially about 20 hours or so, so 24-30 seems reasonable.
