Howell Automotive is horrible to deal with. I highly recommend avoiding them at all costs. I've had bad dealings with them before but I decided to throw a little business their way and ordered my lifters and rockers from them. I ordered them on the 9th and still haven't seen or heard anything from them. (Today's the 20th) I just talked to some hillbilly redneck SOB and he has no idea where they are. He pretty much told me that they'll get there when they get there. I have ordered parts from maperformance, summit, jegs, etc. and always recieved my parts within a few days without every paying extra for shipping. Just thought I'd vent my frustrations with that joke of a company. Maybe its just me but I should not have to pay for incompetence.

You're not the first to feel this way, believe me. Several others have had the same issues. Hell, last summer I had to wait 3 months on a coilpack I ordered. I believe the reason behind it was they wait till they get so many orders filled for that specific item, then send it to their vendor and then ship them all out when they come in.
