Hey marty, I sent an email to you guys but since i'm typing on here, i was curious about two things:

1. Will the front strut bar and engine cover still be able to fit?
2. Is the exhaust piping completely custom or can i run my own turboback setup?

1. We are working on one that will easily fit as I type this.

2. The piping is routed to bolt up to typical exhaust systems.

But of course it's a stock motor, otherwise this thing would still be months and months from being finished! 123 days and counting Marti...

Yep my ride has been there since November 18th, and as of yet has no foreseeable finish date in view. I've been fairly quiet about them dropping the ball on my build, however, as of late I'm feeling a serious lack of commitment on their part in righting their mistakes with a customer that is dropping somewhere between $20-24k (can't be more specific because I can't get a straight estimate from them on anything) into their shop! Wasn't even like I was having them do some sort of complicated build! All I have to say at this particular moment is "not cool Marti and Bobby... not cool!"

the work has been done for quite some time and I'm very surprised that you don't mention that the hold up has been that the cams that you have wanted have been on back order for Months with no projected ETA. That's kind of important. I told you that we were moving ahead so it's not just sitting on an engine stand while we wait and we did just that. It's not our fault that a part from the other side of the world is available. I emailed you this morning, too.
