Yep, and have been on backorder for over 2 weeks now. Get in line buddy! I actually ended up using a Cloyes Hex-a-just single chain.

We have 200 sets leaving Australia in 3 weeks by air. Week to clear customs and shipping. So it is 5 weeks before any of our WD's will see them.

i have a brand new roll master double sitting on my table, i am looking for 60 plus shipping send me a pm if intrestd

the model number is the 11-1140, chain is still and bolts are in the original wrapping

i am selling because i have the older style asp pully, and did not feel like modding the pully, so i went with a single chain

that should answer all questions, if you have more feel free to pm me

jimmy

SLP's is a Rollmaster..I purchased it over 1 year ago when they were like $150-200..crazy.
If you can get a new one for $60 take it and run.

I had the same trouble. I was reading this post and they said 5 weeks. I called them 2 weeks ago and they said 3 weeks... seems like everything is coming in really slowly.

I went out and paid the extra for the SLP double roller, I couldn't wait almost two months for my cam install when I had everything sitting in front of me.

You'll be fine. I just did an install last week on a customers car with a Rollmaster and an ASP, and it worked just fine. I'm pretty sure it's just the C5's that are having to have their pullies machined.

WD, Wholesale Distributors. For those of you that deal with inventory, it is hard to crystal ball what you will need. The last 2 years have been very soft for the performance industy, therefore inventory levels have been low.. This year has started like gangbusters and because of this many companies are out of stock.
