I have rebuilt several car mot

I have rebuilt several car motors plus other types of mechanical jobs. So my ? is my cobra outdrive needs new seals upper and lower impeller etc. how difficult is this? I have a factory manual and seeing all the "special tools" and such is a little spookie.My mech. said it will take about 10-12hrs.labor + parts. So I'm debating whether to do-it myself or pay the PRICE$$$
 
"Had my Upper Gearcase rebuilt

"Had my Upper Gearcase rebuilt by someone else because of the Special tools. Not worth the possibility of damage to me. The Impeller is not a big job and is quite doable. The lower I can't speak to, but if needed I would have it done by someone else. I hope to have what is needed in the future to do it myself. The Labor you mentioned may not be out of line. I was charged for 8 Hours for my Upper Rebuild."
