Yes sir , that's what they charge, actually it's 2.9 hours according to ALLData.
Just follow Matts instructions and you'll be alright -

The only other thing that I would emphasize is make sure you use Dielectric Grease very Important with a Coil Over Plug application - otherwise spark will jump all around inside the boots , so bad that you can see the carbon trails
Not Kidding...
Also , use Motorcraft plugs or you may be doing it again real soon. Motorcraft Plugs are the failsafe plugs for these modulars..
Torque = 12 - 20 ' lbs
BTW - It only takes me 10 minutes , Once I get there, knauk, knauk, knauk...
