I lucked out, I took the experience and PM'ed the people who installed the braces and got great advice on how to do it.

I relayed this information to my local mechanic and they had no issues installing all the braces for me once figuring out the "tricks".

Can you shed some light on these "tricks" you speak of???

Marking the cams with white out so you don't have to do an alignment if you move it out of place.

WD-40 the bolts in advance several times for hard to get bolts.

Having the right tools if you do it yourself, a shop should have enough to do the job (breaker bars, etc...).

How to install -- printed out a lot of pictures from the original GTSpec thread on this forum.

I can't remember of the top of my head, but they're mostly in the original thread.

This order thread is dragging on......but hey Doug, if you can find ways to release the 45 beast I personally am up for it. Seems like most of the newer owners still have hopes that engine product might be developed while of the older owners have given up on the 45, nice to hear passing comments on potential engine MODs even if it is speculative.......

Elguapo-I realize we are waiting for July 31st for the group buy to close, as we have now met the 20 Pc. order minimum can you follow up with GT Spec and ask them to crunch some production/delivery time numbers? I am curious to see what the availability is on ALL the units as there were some back ordered pieces with questionable production dates when we started the GB thread.
 
Guys,

Very sorry if this causes an inconvenience, but I have to drop out of the race. I just got braced... thanks to EG3!

Is there any update on this group buy? I know we need one more to meet the minimum but has there been any recent communication with the people at GT Spec regarding production/availability?
 
For production only, that doesn't include on the water time. Most likely it will be more like 60 days out from order confirmation. Originally there was an issue with a couple of the braces and concerns over the factories ability or desire to produce MOQ's? Now that we are close on the order it seems reasonable that GT Spec can confirm with Taiwan if everything on our list can be made and if they can solidify a timeline. Of course I am excited to receive the product but it would be nice to receive factory confirmation, my concern is that I order the the four I want then I receive two pieces and wait for the rest in backorder hell.......
