Sorry for the lack of feedback. I've been out of the country for the last couple of weeks. I'll call the machine shop this week and find out where they are at.

One set is still available by the way....

I'll trade you a square top straight across for the last set.

Edit: Square top is not available.

I would be interested in the water pump inlet housing if not to late.

Ok we are coming up on 6 weeks here. Have you had a chance to talk to the machine shop on their progress?

Looks good! One day I'll need one of those when I give up on my bleeder screw.

I talked to the guy on Monday. He told me they had a big deadline for a commercial customer which pushed our stuff out a bit, but that he would start our parts today. I'll call him again in the morning or go by his shop during lunch to confirm. I guess $2000 worth of parts doesn't get you very far....

The shop told me today that they still haven't started! I'm more than a little annoyed, but not much I can do since they already have 50% payment. I'll keep pushing....

Machine shops will always push out the mass before the little guys. If I were you I would find someone else. I personally have a cnc buddy and he has access to all sort of machinery. I have the solid works program at home... Any competent cnc machinist can setup the cnc and run these through in a day.

1 thing is I learned that shops will bid on jobs and small jobs don't really interest many.

I can still offer my buddy's help in NJ. He would have them done in less than 10 days.
Send me the drawings and the price and he'll tell you tomorrow, if he can match it (or improve on it).
