So what I've discovered here is that, since Raybestos has created the part number for the product before it was actually released, it is in their "inventory" so to speak. Companies like transmissioncenter.net likely auto-populate their product offerings through their links to their vendors databases. This was probably an automatic product listing generated by their system. If you were to place an order, you'd likely get a response that they are on Back Order or with an unavailable date of delivery...

I've reached out to Raybestos again and they still say there has been no movement. Supply chain issues have moved everything back and tbh, I'm starting to get a bit worried...

Sucks but I hope it still pans out, at this point, at least for them to make good on their actions of taking it as far as a short commercial and part number created. To back out now would be an ethical issue I think.

Do you think there is any value add to all of us calling and perhaps show some numbers of interest? Yes, there is supply chain but there is also supply and demand that could drive supply chain priority which, I generally fear is pretty low for our platform LOL

At this point, I don't think anything could hurt..

Just to keep this thing somewhat going... I have had these on order with PATC since May and have already been asked multiple times if I am still interested in this order. I have said [multiple times] "yes" and that I'm aware that [unfortunately ] this product hasn't even been made yet and knew there could be a wait, but feels like they would rather I cancel it rather than have it hanging out there.

Sent an email a couple days ago and this was their response. Really sucks to invest so much into a engine only for the tranny people to keep letting you down.
