I could do it easily, yes.

I would never change my workflow in such a radical way without having
some padding. I'd add a week (but not charge for it) to learn whaZZup.
At least, you are going to need to tweak the stock WWP templates and get
comfy with the way the product does business.

And, of course, a lot depends on the quality and structure of the
FrameMaker documents you have to work with. If you have to reformat
those because there are bijillions of on-the-fly, ad-hoc local
customizations, then your project will be delayed . . ..

Immediatement, go here:

not collect $200.

To experienced FrameMaker/Webworks users:

I have a contract to produce HTML Online Help from
Frame Documents. I have chosen Webworks Professional
to produce this, based on their marketing material and
reviewing the Webworks standard edition that comes
with the FrameMaker CD. With a document of about 215
pages, I estimate 8 days to produce the help file.

As I am used to the Framemaker to RTF to Winhelp form
of development, would this be a reasonable time
estimate? Very little re-writing is being done and
very little formatting of the topics will be done.
Just a quick conversion using the Webworks templates.
