Great point on the timing and warranty issue BP. Many years ago on a build I purchased a fancy transmission, by time I got the whole thing up and running it was almost 18 mos from purchase date. While arguing with the vendor I tried to explain I was not a tv show shop. It takes me longer than a month to assemble a rig. Save money buy a part sell something buy another part. Takes folks like us a bit longer. Long story short the tranny was in fact manufactured incorrectly which they readily admitted but since it was long past warranty window I had to foot the bill for the repair. Per BP post Fred be sure you are ready for the motor when ordering it so any issue can be resolved gracefully. I know there are a bunch of differing opinions on this but my personal opinion is go with Johnny. He has integrity and does exactly what he says he will. Trust for me is a big deal.
I will buy from Johnny he proved to me that they stand behind what they build and BP made a good point I will wait I just get excited.
I hate to see you get rid of the Cuda Just build another shop to store the next car in. LOL
