700.... ill do it for you for half! I can even hop a flight and still do it for less. The part is only 90 dollars. it should take a pro 1/2 hr-1hr. not sure what your dealer was charging all that for....

Well, i thought you could buy a cam follower for 80 bucks and do it yourself for free.

700 is a total freaking rip off. People remove their cam followers all the time on here and replace them

Maybe I mis read the question or legally retarded. But the question was how much to have cam follower replaced. From all responses even original poster sounds like everyone is talking about cams not the follower. If it is the follower you can do it yourself for $50.

Nevermind..... dumb moment... dont do it man. Just do it yourself especially if you plan to run a HFFP you'll get used to is since they wear pretty fast.
