as noted the 35-40 man*hours is about right. However you really can't put more than 2 people on it and get a 1-1 impact on hours. the 3rd mechanic has diminishing returns.
Two weeks of what? The scope of a 100 hour is the same as an annual. It shouldn't take more than a day if it's one the mechanic has seen the last time around.

I would like to see you walk in the door at 0800 and remove 2 cowls, complete an appliance list, do two compression checks, remove and clean all the plugs, swing the gear, remove the interior, do the inspection, check compliance on all ADs, (eng,prop, a/f, and appliances) complete the billing, and sign it off before 1600.
If you can do that I want to take lessons.
Well there's your problem. You're going home an hour early!

But yeah, five people were working on the plane at once.
