Most shops charge $25 per weld. Take it from me, invest your monmey and do it right the first time or you will spend twice as much later on getting it right.

Throw me 300$ and I will install your camshafts for you. And thats with you holding the light and helping out with a couple of small task. If you just drop it off its $500 for camshafts and will take about 8 hours.

As for welding an exhaust, i really haven't searched much in Omaha. My dual setup was done by a performance shop in Oklahoma. My "Y" pipe was done by a Big Al's in VA.

I really don't have an hourly rate, the $ really depends on what you want to have done.

Damn, for $300 I would drive to NB to get cams installed. Thats a good deal! Cheaper than any shop, and you can learn something.

LMAO, thats too much. Yeah, I need a second set of hands when it comes time to turn the cam shafts from neutral back into their correct position before putting the timing chain sprocket back on.
