Timing belt changes are easier with KEP mounts than Smallcar mounts. Neither is horribly difficult. you do have to pull off the muffler and CAT, and on Smallcar mounts, the front mounting plate. It is fairly straightforward after that. You do have to remove more than the same engine in the Subaru car, but you have total access to the front of the engine when you do. We charge 3 hours labor. Newer engines have 100k intervals. John East Coast Vanagon |
