Week tops, and also after I went back and looked at the pic for the rad hose, you need to turn it around. Put the long end toward the block and the short end toward the rad. That is how mine was in my car.

Are you gonna need the manifold sent back also so that you can mount it all together?
I just found another problem. The manifold is not gonna work either way. It sits a full 2" too far forward. There's not enough room for the fans OR the radiator. I have the FAL fans too.
The WG dumptube will hit the fans, and so will the turbo compressor housing.

Tim, this thing is a mess. There's nothing about it that's salvageable. I'll send it back, but I'm not gonna play the hot potatoe game with it for the next few weeks to try and make it fit.
I left you a voicemail last night. Call me!!!
