I recently bought a 1969 Mercury 650. The engine has good compression, but needs the carburetors rebuilt. I have an estimate for $300 for parts (rebuild kits) and 3 hours of labor @$85. Total = $555. Is this a reasonable estimate or should I look elsewhere? Thanks for any advice, I am new at all...
