I got farther up the food chain in a call today, sounds like things are moving along.He seemed to think they might be ready in 2 weeks, I'll figure that to end up being 3.
They have a full plate due to opening a machine facility back east. The two head guys of the machine department have been gone much of this year.
Edelbrock carburetors have been made by Magneti Marelli and Edelbrock is taking over the manufacture so they're busy getting that set up.

John, we're trying to get caught up but it is going to take a while. We are so far behind. Glad to hear they were worth the wait. My fantasy is to someday have heads ready to go and can send them out the same day.

How long did it take to get those heads. I have a friend who's been waiting since last October.

Mark, the Mummert covers are available. I spoke to John yesterday and ordered a set.

I have some of the valve covers. We're trying to figure out a more efficient way to sand the top of the fins and logo to highlight them. Too many other things to do. Trying to find time but its no where to be found.
