Default Valve adjustment

Anyone know how much a valve adjustment will run? Would do it myself, but have nerve damage in hands and cant turn a wrench any more. Thanks for your input! [sm=helpout.gif]

an 05 6r would be between $400-$600 I would think. Not sure though, because I take too long.

edit: Prolly a 4 hr job though
