He asks for three weeks to rework your TBI.
So expect a month or five weeks with shipping delays.
My truck has taken years to complete.

My intake and fuel regulator took almost three months from them. Hopefully when we do the throttle body it will be different.

Health issues effect us all?
So very pleased he's willing to take his time and do it right.
Great guy to deal with.

If I could earn his respect and take over the machine process and rebuild units for him, I would be honored to have the machines and parts to make another 10,000 - 250,000 TBI Vortec engines for us.

These guys are fighting the huge market influx of new technologies and still calmly offering the best solution.
It's got to be hard when the big guys are beating your margins and customer base down every day.

Less complexity. = More efficient.

The LS is cool, more than twice the money and way more complex to R&R.
In most cases, especially with non-race applications, it's clearly over-kill.

The primary issue is the learning curve.

It took me years to fianlly agree this method is the best solution.
Brian told me to go buy a Sniper.
So he sent me away kicking rocks until I researched it was better to hire him to burn my chips.
Karate Kid logic, I suppose.

Hope your journey is less painful and more efficient because of my exhaustive research.

Most people won't listen.
