MG TD TF 1500 - Flat Rate Times

Hello all:

Does anyone have a chart showing the expected flat rate times for working on the TD. These are the charts mechanics use to determine home much time a given job should take, and therefore they know how many hours to charge for. I have one for the mga twin cam, and a book on imported cars for the MGB. I am looking for one on the TD/TF which should be the same. I would also be interested in a chart for the TC as the engines and some other times might be similar.

these cars were built 50 years ago by a an old British firm who probably had never heard of such thing as time. I suspect that charge rates were workked out on the basis of how much we dislike this customer and how much can he afford.
This kind of sophistication was ananthema to Brisitsh garage owners who were only a few short years removed from being horse traders.
