How long does a typical cam upgrade take?

Guys what is the standard time for a camshaft replacement? How many hours/days does it take on a 1992-1996 SBF?

If you have done the job many times before and thus know exactly what to do and in what order, what tools to use etc. etc. call it at least few hours.

If this is a first time thing call it at least a full day...depending on skill level, tools / equipment / facilities available etc. etc.

sounds about right. While you're at it you might as well replace the timing chain. It'll save you the hassle of possibly having to do it later
