The 2 hours I quoted was for pulling the engine. I had to pull mine again a week after reinstalling it. It goes quickly when you know exactly what to do and have air tools.
As for timeserts, I've not had to do my heads, but the bottom end instead. Still 20 holes. Once I had the block prepped it was about 10 mins. per hole. It was over a year ago so I may be fuzzy on the time.
