Joe,
I got my mount from CCI about a year ago, and while it
took loonger to get it than Fred had originally told
me, I think that it only took about 2 months.

This was for a Cozy IV, and I was impressed with the
quality.

I know from discussions on the Cozy builders forum
that there has been a 4130 steel shortage in the US
starting about 6 months ago.  I don't know if that is
impacting delivery or not.

A year ago, Fred was real good at responding to email.
It sounds like he may be much busier now.

MessageHas anyone on this list actually received an
engine mount from CCI?  I am trying to figure out
how to move my project forward in the engine mount
department so I can get into the fun stuff like
exhaust and cooling.  I ordered a mount from CCI in
August last year subsequent to being quoted a 6 week
lead time.  In Novemeber, CCI stated they had one
more to finish before starting on mine, now this
week I am told it will be another 4 to 6 weeks. With respect to delivery, every communication from
CCI has been grossly wrong so I can not belive the
latest 4 to 6 week info is credible.  Does anyone have any business experience with CCI in
the last 6 months that is different than what I have
decsribed?  Has anyone on this list actually ordered
and recieved a mount in the last 6 months?  Should I
wait another 6 weeks or look for another
alternative?

Any info is appreciated.
Joe
