Question Triton 4.6 Litre Tune ups

I was told it will cost me $300 to tune up this 4.6 litre engine, Is this true and Why? I priced the plugs and wires and come up with about $85.

If you ever changed the plugs and wires on a 4.6, you'd charge somebody $215 to do it, too!

I change the plugs on my 4.6 every year, they are a pain in the , but it's certainly not an imposible job.. The worst one is the pasanger side behind the firewall. I of course use long extensions & saw a good tip on this board to use duck tape between the ext & the plug socket (great idea) so the socket dont fall off, had the problem many a time. I think there were even more tips, do a search or I'm sure the good people of this board will post some more, good luck
