BS Alert?

I was talking with my mechanic yesterday and we were discussing head gasket problems with certain year Subaru 4 cylinders. He told me that he likes to pull the engine when he does the head gaskets on them. He said he charges $3,500 to do it. He does charge $110 an hour (this is Aspen) but that really sounds like a load of crap to me. I know there are people on this board who also own Subarus but just in general priciple does $3500 sound reasonable for a head gasket even with two banks? I've had these guys do quite a bit of work on my cars and my employers and they've always seemed honest and competent. Fortunately my engine (3.0 H6) isn't prone to head gasket problems but I'm wondering if I should be looking for a new mechanic?
