Is it just me?

This is why it is always good to have a plan. Make sure you have all the necessary tools needed. Then order parts that you need first, or wait for all of them to come in, then start the project.
I have had to order a few "specialty" tools, and also had to make up my own devices to get a job done
Waiting does suck, but it will pay off later.

Or does waiting for parts and specialty tools suck...
or does waiting to install them worse?
Dang, I feel like a kid.
I wanna play with my toys....
1 part and 1 tool left to start....

.I have been planning since 83 to get something to replace the lost shiny item. Tried to replace it with a substandard item and only made me more longing for something....so I drove junk.....then Ford did me that final poke in the soul and went and bought this 06 gt (what a deal) and I don't have much to spend but with a lot of OT and packing lunches and drinking water I saved enough for the parts......I wanted.....I have been waiting soooo long my hair is turning gray...er...the hair that is staying.
I believe all good things come to those that wait....but waiting is cruel.
Too bad the parts need more parts....but that will come later....so the suffering continues.
PARALYZR :"hey we were here and you weren't and we still have your stuff"
Not funny, I watched him drive away once and I was home....all I got was the note and that was on a Sat (Damn MP3 player!). It was evil....so evil.

Just told, May 7th shipping date (they believe) May 14th I should have everything it will give me one week to do the work try to test and tune and then season starts. Only good news is that first event is a non points event and I will have some time to work out any bugs...unless I find a Valve spring compressor before then.
Update: One company said I should have it.....they are now confused and looking into it.....they will call back once they understand what and where.....I feel relieved...of my senses.
Second company (I wont trash them by naming them) claimes that the tool will be shipped not on the first 4 promised dates (they are now in the past) but it will ship on may 24th that is one day after the season starts.....:smash: 14 weeks is too long of a wait for a part or tool, hell the Army makes men out of boys in less time.
Anyone know where I can pick up a Valve Spring Compressor so I can do this cam swap before hell freezes over?
