Thanks for the offer guys, but I'd rather take my own car and that's not possible yet.
I went in today to check the progress and the engine is in, fuel line hooked up. All they need to do is install the distributor, wires and exhaust.
They say it should be another week. I predict 3 more. As long as it runs properly with no leaks, I'm happy.
We'll see how it goes.

that's good new Les! hopefully his wknd you'll have it. I am going to have some minor work done on mine but will drop it off at Santos just before I head badk to So. Cal. Thought about driving there but with all the unused airmiles we have might as well use some and rent a C6 vert once there. Come on up when you are back on the road, I;d luv to have a ride.

Well, the exhaust doesn't fit, so they have to modify it. I told them that I need it by the 1st of August at the latest, not that it matters now.

If so ask them if the headlights interfere with the intake.

These guys have got to be kidding!
I removed my stock manifolds, A/C, installed headers and connected to my side pipes in less than one day.
What type of recommendation did you have of this place?

Exhaust is in as of yesterday.
All they have to do is put in the fluids. I suspect they put in a litre of oil a day
I gotta laugh. What else can I do at this point?
