I see no issue with the starter. I have OTVC wires that are just neatly routed and do not touch the headers. No issues there either.

Think the order was upped to 75. I cant blame him though with only a handfull of us that prepaid and all the others that said they would purchase that havent/wont. Its a shame to probably one of the best parts for the $$$$ for the lt1 right now if ever IMO.

I think he probably should have taken a $5 deposit. I think they are a great product. I wish people would have given some more support.

well, I just ordered mine a few days ago, they should be arriving at my place soon. Great price for what the product is. I told him straight up when I asked him some details back before they were ready to be delivered, that I was waiting for some other people to install them. I waited, and there were a few happy campers, so I bought my set. Chose them over the pacesetters, and I couldn't afford the kooks.
The way he was talking a few days ago, he was almost out of them. I think a lot of people were getting skittish about paying him before they came out because they were afraid he might flake on them. It is hard to give your money to a company you are not real familiar with, on the promise that you will EVENTUALLY get your stuff. I am sure he was aware of this, and knew the first run would be rough. There were a lot of bitchy, cry babies in his thread though, so he might be a little bitter now. I don't blame him if he is.

The bottom line is if they are selling or not. I think now that he has earned a rep with the product, it would be foolish to not continue. Especially if they are almost gone.
