Timing chain?
How long does it take to remove and replace a timing chan and cam phasers?
On my 08 F150 Screw
Ford is doing it. They have it apart. They say the parts will be in Friday but it can take a week to get it together. They say it is ALOT of work.

everything infront of the engine comes off, all the accessories, timing cover, and then the chains. in short....it sucks. they will be replacing the gaskets and draining coolant and power steering fluid.

I did mine and he's right, everything comes off. I took off the radiator, fan, all the stuff in front to do the job right. If not done right, it's not finished right and you pay for it for a long time afterward. I'd have a hard time trusting someone else to do the job, I hope your mechanic is a good guy. Good luck,
