i read somewhere that if you do it yourself it takes about 9 hours but it can be much shorter if you have hel with a buddy.

I'm just nervous opening up the engine...how hard is it really to change them out? It could take a professional mechanic 9 hours but it may take me a week. I just wouldn't want to get in over my head with this project.
