[QUOTE="Daryl, post: 1481778, member: 24538"] Ok, so now that I know my engine is finally being worked on (after 3 months!), I’m starting to get antsy. I held true to my word and was not the “call all the time and check” kind of customer. A week ago Friday he was going to call Scat and get an ETA on my rotating assembly and call me back the following Monday or Tuesday. No call. Been a week. so I’m going to bend my self-imposed rules and call him and start putting a little fire under him. I don’t want to be a nudge, but I also don’t want to be the one they feel they can shove to the back of the boat. I’m also thinking of driving down there (about 1.5 hrs away) and get my old parts. I know FOR CERTAIN my patience will explode if, for some unknown reason, my old parts magically don’t find their way back to me. This shop is highly reputable so I seriously doubt that’d happen, but my weariness is chipping away at me. How long should it normally take an engine shop to completely go through and rebuild an engine? A few days once they get on it? A week? Or ??? Anybody? Anybody? Buehler? Buehler? Frye?... Ok, I’m through venting!! [/QUOTE]
