Default So how long should a build take

So on december 24 i droped my car off at FIS in mckinney. i recently blew my motor so i am having them install all new stuff.
Ver7 block
Ver8 heads(avc working)
Ver 8 intake manifold
ver 7 ecu
weld my 20g and put on the external set up.

so that is what is happening now. so it is exactly 3 months after i droped my car off. so fis has told me about 2 or 3 times that i was going to get my car back and i have gone up there to get it and then they said O it is not ready. so that happend 3 times and then they said i could get it yesterday, then i call them and guess what, i cant get it. i am not trying to talk bad about FIS. i mean steve and rick have been nothing but great. it just seems like 3 months is so long. how long does it take to do something like this. well once again steve says that i can get my car this weekend. i think i will get it sunday. i dont know y i wrote this i guess i just wanted to release a little tension that has been building up for months. I WANT MY CAR BACK AHHHHHHH.

be patient, it will be done right

typical build time (IMO) is 1 to 2 weeks per $thousand, *after* you get the parts

exactly what the above three said... you want something done right, you pay your dues.

now if you want to continue swearing at me and calling me names, go ahead, its the internet, I don't care. Just about everyone here knows how I easy I am to work with and how nice I am.

Keep the pressure on them, you'll get it back before you know it.

sure sounds like you are, I took your post with quite a bit of negativity to it... so with that being said, you might not be trying, but you're doing a bang-up job talking negatively about one of the best shops in the region.

Who said anything about a grudge? I just thought the statement was funny.
