Took my 2.5 to the machine shop over two weeks ago, I ask them how long thier turnaround time is, they tell me 7-10 days I am like cool... so I wait a few days for them to call me and let me know what the measurements are going to be so I can order the pistons... well 1 week later I go back cause I get no call and they say "We are busy and now we are caught up but we will get it tore down today for sure and give you a call." o.k cause I know things happen, I go back 3 days later cause still no phone call and they are like "Our teardown guy just hasnt been coming in but we will get it tore down today yadda yadda...." I looked in the back and I seen my shortblock sitting on the ground where it was dropped off at day one. I went back in just this last monday, 5 days later and the guy cant even look me in the eyes... "We are swamped but we will get it tore down this week." and the shortblock is still sitting there.
So if its not tore down by this thursday I am going to pick it up and take it someplace else. If they would have said they were this busy from jumpstreet I would not be irritated, but I am afraid that this is how things are going to be dealing with them once its tore apart. They have now taken up 3 weeks of my time.
So I am asking anyone in the TD community in Texas is they know of any machine shops that are good in between Waco and Austin, the closer to Ft.Hood the better. I asked on the LSSDAC and didnt get much feedback. I am hoping to have this thing up by late June now.
Thanks,
Jeff
