Turn around time is around two weeks. I did have to call to find that out.

Bling will be under the hood. 
Robert-
Looks like a nice project you got going there. I read the thread and I will keep an eye out as I want to see the finished product. I have a similar project in the works... PE TT Kit with all the extras, I did get a SFR intake manifold, looks sexy, probably not building the motor either. I get back from Iraq in April. Are you at Carson? That was my first duty station. Anyway, anything you learn please do share and good luck.

I'm not at Carson, I'm prior USAF. However, I have a home in the Mesa Ridge area of Foutain. For a couple more months at least.

Oh I see. Nice area, graduated high school in the Colorado Springs. Still a beautiful area. I was there for a couple of days on my R&R. Anyway, the SFR manifold, here is the thread I purchased it from.

Which one?
