Default Morel lifters est. ship date. ...

I have had several e-mails about LS1 Morel lifters so I thought I would just post for all to read. End users please don't get mad at the board sponsors they are waiting patiently also. 3 months ago Morel changed production schedule from 200 to 400 pcs (12 to 25 sets) to a production run of 4000 pcs (250 sets). This in hopes to cut the leadtime down on these "in high demand" lifters. In the interm this has all but cut off the supply of lifters and with Holidays, vacation time, and people out sick Morel's not been able to hit expected release dates of Late Nov., Late Dec.

The good news is the lifters are out of final OD grinding and will be in assembly next week. Once they have them built they will be shipped to board sponsors. This is estimated to be around the 3rd week of Jan.
