Joel,
Will you be able to fit the 4" DP with BMR K-member in the LT1 cars ? We discussed the 3.5" would fit, but I'm wondering about the 4" DP for the S80.

I would GUESS that Joel is closed today. Also GUESS that kits will be going to coater this week that were being held up by downpipes from Stainless Works and by flanges for the downpipes that needed to be received and welded on before going to coaters. All guesses.....but i think a lot of us should be real happy within 2 weeks when the ups/fedex/usps man gets to our house. Now this could all be wrong but thats what I would guess.....week at coater and then a week for shipping.

Sorry but in my case your guess is wrong because my stuff isn't getting coated.

I GUESS my stuff should have shipped LAST week since that is what HE said was going to happen in above post.

GUESS maybe I read his post wrong!

I assume you are kidding since waiting 16 weeks could hardly be called rushing him!

Joel can I assume that early next week means monday or tuesday NOT next friday? I already had to push my car out of my friends shop. Now it is sitting in a mud swamp from the melting snow...just perfect...
