OK, I give up.... what page on this 93 page thread are the specifics of just "what" you are building that takes 10 months ?
Are parts the issue ?

And I thought we were slow ?
That's why we always take a chamber mold FIRST for the custom Pistons, not just the HEMI's, even the Wedges nowadays ? Just seems to go faster = quicker service, 3 weeks even in peak season.

It's complicated.
@MarPar will fill you in.

Thanks! I've always wanted a personalized trophy.

Getting close to going on the dyno.
Im not making any promises nor am I accepting any at this time, but I think next week it will be ready.
I am conservatively thinking that the 2 hours left worth of work can be accomplished within 4 or 5 days.

Took 8 months for me to get my motor back, partially my fault because he convinced me his parts guy had all the parts, and I let it ride out, Finally stepped in and brought parts to him myself.
