Anywhere from 1month to 9 months depending on how many times it falls off the shipping truck?

^^^^^^^^^^^^

Thats funny

Generally it is dependant on the available supply of sleeves. If they have them the block is quick, If Darton is back ordered they are at their mercy.

What does a shipping company that went under have to do with your motor? DId they say the motor was ready but then something happened with the shipping?

I have been waiting far longer than you have.I guess Canadians work at a much slower pace than us Americans.They have problems with vendors not delivering on parts.Even though they appear to have legitimate reasons it still gets really old waiting.Excuses don't make your car get down the track.Good luck.

The motor was ready to go, but ARE said they sent it out but then they said that the company that was shipping it is going though some problems right now. So barry from ARE went down and pick up three of the motors that where just sitting there. this was last Thursday, so I called the next day to see what was going on. I talk to Wade and he said that its been shipped out again. This time he said it will be at my house in 4-5 days.
