If I had to do it again (without air-tools), I'd say I could do it in about 5 hours.

It took me 8 hours to do mine. I did them myself but it was my first time and I didn't have any air-tools or anything. I'd think an experienced shop could do it in less time than 6.5 hours. Probably more like 5 hours?
