    One box arrived today! Two parts, almost $400. My new primary chain and new coils/wires from Dynatek.
    The main order is still waiting on parts to arrive. Jan 20 is the date for the last part, so I may cancel that one and have the order ship on the 9th instead. This is from Partzilla, and has most of the seals and smaller parts that I could still get as OEM.

      Waiting on Partzilla. One part number will not be there until Jan 23, by latest email. I'm off work a few days later this week, so I'll put the rods on the crank and get it ready to install.

          Thanks DEEBS, I do have new chains on the crank. I've found I missed two "O" rings and a bearing, so another wait. Once here, I can assemble the main case.

            Well, it looks like another month before I get a bearing I need to assemble the cases. Working on the "snow plow" for now, as I keep breaking it.

              Yep, those pesky 'Rolling Delays' have become all to commonplace.
              Just went through that on some Delta Faucet parts. Delta shipped all the things I needed, on the same day as Ordered on Jan 14th. Post Office lost it.
              Replacement 2nd order finally showed up. First Order went POOF in the Post Office system.

              We've been anxiously been waiting to see the build. Hopefully all the Parts show up so the build can start.
              Be awesome when you are done.
