What engine?

£150 including parts or not? You've got to take the head off but it's a 2 hour job at best. Cam kit, headgasket set, 2L of antifreeze, cambelt and I'd do oil & filter as well. Don't try and skimp on it by just fitting a camshaft. Get the full kit with new followers and oil spray bar.

I'd say £150 for labour was quite reasonable given what's involved. Cam choice depends on what you want from the car but my recommend as a good all rounder is a Kent RL31.
