My Subaru needed a clutch, but it had 150,000 and the head gaskets were seeping as well. So clutch, timing, waterpump and headgaskets would have been $3500 done at an independent shop 10 years ago. I bet that's at least $5000 today. It was $500 in parts and I did it myself in a weekend. I have a cherry picker but not a lift. Thought with all the Subarus around here it might be a good retirement gig. Do one a week charge $3000 plus parts.
Of couse everything seems like easy money until you run into problems or failures.
