No real update yet, still waiting on my cam from Geoff at EPS. He said it should ship this week so we will see, 5 weeks and counting so far waiting for this cam.

this does not sit well with me... I just ordered my EPS cam a week ago. He told me it would arrive in 3 weeks; I thought that was even a bit long. If it takes 6 weeks I will not be a happy camper

Yep he told me 2-3 weeks when I ordered mine. Apparently this long of wait is pretty common for his cams. I just read through this thread about it http://www.performancetrucks.net/for...ight=geoff+eps

just read the whole thread, and it seems he has hired help since then... i would bet the lead times are getting better. I really need to have my car up and running in 4 weeks or so !

Man, that sucks, I ordered mine like 2 weeks ago and really need it in the next 7-10 days since my builder will need it to reassemble my engine. Again, he also told me that it would be 3 weeks.

I emailed him on Monday, and am still waiting to hear back.

I'm not knocking Geoff, he makes an awesome product, and was super friendly to deal with when I ordered. I just hope he has been able to get his production caught back up.

I ordered mine about 6 wks ago and got it early last week so about 5 weeks
exactly.....lucky for me it's still in the 20s and 30s temperature wise here
in stupid *** Wisconsin. So just tryin to patiently put it back together and

Where did you get that dipstick? Is that an old MBA piece?
