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. I can dream, can't I ???

so the long wait is over....I came home today and had 3 boxes sitting in front of my garage door, like a kid on x-mas morning I ran over and opened them all up, and there they were my heads and mummert script valve covers....... wow these things were worth the wait. this weekend cant come quick enough to get these on. thanks john for the awesome quality parts......just like all the other parts I have gotten from you.

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.

Talked to an engineer @ Edelbrock on Monday. They apparently have fixtures made and are working on final blue prints from the drawings we sent then.Not having much luck pinning them down to to any specific dates on when they will be ready to start machining. Can only hope its soon.
