I ordered mine through Yank and it was less than a week. Call the vendor see what they say. Something might have gotten jammed up in the process or your order might hav been mis-placed. I'm sure a friendly call will resolve it.
BTW It is worth the wait.

I ordered my Yank stall on April 8th. It's still not here. I ordered from Speed inc. All my other things got here very fast though.

Your order was placed today at 1:56PM by vendor on SS3600 from Co.
We can only build after the order comes in.

Yanks is on top of business. I have always enjoyed working with him. Had a few chats with him to get some info.

BTW Dave the pt4000 does its job.

Dave thanks for that info. I was told it was ordered on the 19th I guess not. Also What would you recommend for my bolt on nitrous car @ this altitude?Is the ss3600 going to be to tight?

Yank is very good. He usually custom builds them in 1 week, then ships.

Yea any time you order something "custom" be prepared to wait a while compared to off the shelf stuff.... Generally the wait is well worth it...

Took me over a month to get my custom cam but like I said worth the wait....

Everything I have heard about yank has been top notch..

Its not a problem with yank Its the vendor I ordered it from. I paid the vendor on the 19th and Yank is telling me it was just ordered. What a way to waste 10 days! Thanks Vendor

I ordered directly from Yank and had it in about 2 weeks (10 business days), but 5 of those are from shipping since they are across the country. They are worth the wait.

your problem was that you ordered it from Speed Inc....
I've had issues with them in the past and I wont order from them any more..
you should have ordered your converter straight from Yank..when you can order direct, theres no reason to let a monkey in the middle screw it up.


and Just to Add....
It took Dave about a week to build it and ship it out the door... I ordered it directly from him and talked with him on the phone to get exactly what I wanted...
talking to the real person building your converter is imperative in getting the right thing and getting it in a timely manner

I've never had a issue with Speed inc. I always get my things from them very fast. The issue was with a vendor that Yank uses. Speed inc did there part. So did Yank. But Speed gave me a better deal. I called Yank and they gave me NO deal.

Usually when a company does that they are trying to fair to their dealers.

I know! I did buy alot of other things at the same time. So I'm sure that had a bit to do with the deal. But it's all good.
