Ty,
A project THIS involved is quite a learning experience, huh?!! From the experience I've gained with my own Falcon project, I'll suggest that you give up on trying to predict an actual completion date!! It is futile
and will drive you bonkers!!
Since "finishing" my Falcon, I've had to send the tranny controller back to have it updated (nearly 3 week delay), pull the motor back out for an oil pressure issue (killed another 3 weeks), ignition box failure (1 week), alternator failure (had to send back to Summit, and await return - over 2 week delay), and now I'm waiting on a new radiator (into week 3 now...)
If you need it, I'll donate my time to assemble the motor for you.
Good luck, buddy!
Lee
