Thanks Brian

That is relative to your skill level. Plan on a weekend to be safe.

Also depends how many changes were made to the fuel pump circuit. The injection system is pretty much a pretty simple system in comparison to some of today's systems.

I've never had carbs but when I first had the car I pulled everything off to replace all the seals and gaskets to eliminate vac leaks. That included new plenum throttle body runners injectors wiring vac and fuel lines and I think that took about 3 Hours. So depnds on your experience and knowledge. I can't imagine it would take more than that. Just remember you need a different fuel pump too.

If the injection was taken off and replaced with carbs, there could be diagnostic time to figure out why it was removed in the first place.

And, of course, if the cam was changed, the sky is the limit...
