me too!!  :villagers: I have called them several times and they keep telling me "anyday now".... They charged my card when I placed the order though. :swear:

I thought I would have no issues with ordering from them either.

I'm still waiting on my (Dad's) engine brace to ship. "Suppose" to be this week but I'll wait to see..... :sleeping: I'm happy with their phone service and help although I think they (Scott) stretched the truth when selling me the hydroboost brake system. I don't know too much about Hydro vs factory and he said it would run a good 2-3 minutes  if the engine died since it runs of the power steering pump. Where as if the engine dies with factory equipment you get one or two pumps before you loose vacuum. It was a BIG buying factor for me.

Someone here pointed out that so is the power steering pump (run from the engine) so you'll get the same amount of time and I asked Scott who took 2 emails to even respond to that question, his reply was you get a few extra pumps (far cry from 2-3 minutes). Pi$ed me off a bit, selling items by way of BSing isn't something I speak highly of. But, he was good to me through the order & they make great parts. That is the only thing I've had from them.

for the same price I would rather have the logo....I would think it would make your car a little more desireable than blank logo seatbelts....

Unless of course you're like me and want to have any modern upgrade as discreet as possible.  ;)

Carl, you won't be unsatisfied with the Hydraboost, My brother just installd it on his 69 Mustang and it rocks! He put on 13" Wilwoods at the same time so we didn't get to feel before and after, but I'm impressed. My brother says that if the engine dies you have 2-3 pumps. The hydraulic pressure is stored in the accumulator. Read up on it here: http://www.hydratechbraking.com/hydroboost_faq/#What is the nitrogen reserve accumulator bottle and what are its benefits

Stroker,

If it makes you feel any better, I've been waiting over a year now for the engine compartment brace....    >:(

I guess whenever I order my belt I will ask to pick them up in person.

I think if I remember the  guy said if you have them overnighted your priority goes up which is what I did.
