Default What is Reasonable Labor cost for Headers, Cam & Valve Train Install

I'm considering headers and a cam for my Z51 and wondering what a reasonable labor charge would be for installation of the headers, cam, new valve springs and rods. Thanks for any insights.

around 20-23 hours at whatever the shop's labor rate is. Lot of work on these cars. The headers you will get overlapping labor, it's all going towards getting the cam in and pulling the heads to delete the dod.
