block sleeving

How hard is it to install block sleeves? i see these places charging like $750 for labor only... what is up with that? or am i just being a tightwad? I didn't think it would be that hard...

unless you have the equipment to press the original sleeves out and a mill to deck the block on installation of said sleeves, you're SOL.

when they say "drop in replacement", they dont literally mean "drop in the replacement".
