$720 labor for clutch and flywheel fair?

My mechanic is asking for $720 for labor to replace clutch and flywheel. Does this seem fair? He is reliable and I have been using him for stuff I can't do at home for years but this seems a little high.

Little high IMO. Book time is 5-1/2hrs for each as separate jobs. Once you're in there the second job doesn't seem that long.
