Default where did Bill Blue go?

I sent out my cylinder and money order to Bill this past Monday, UPS says it was deliverer to his porch on Wednesday. I've been trying to get a hold of Bill via email and phone since Monday and he hasn't returned any of my messages.
Has anyone talked with him recently? I hope he is just on vacation or something and ill hear from him in the next few days but this has me worried.

Thanks. I'm hoping he's either busy or on vacation. I just want to get my bike back together and ride.

I know it's frustrating but just try to be patient, he will get it to you as soon as he can. Sometimes life gets in the way of work.

He is a busy man and if you think about it this is the busy time of the year. Unless he is caught up there was a delay at least as he had sold out of stock on hand.

If that ever happened (God forbid it doesn't), there are machinist out there that could easily handle the task of taking your existing piston and designing a custom sleeve. The sleeve that I have right now is from a local machinist. As a disclaimer though, this machinist has worked with countless racing squads building race ready engines so he has experience on his side.

Spoke with Bill today, he said he was at the hospital. I did not enquire as to why, he said he had not had a chance to look at emails for a few days but would try to look at them tonight. I hope all is well with him and and his family.

Thank you for the update, Glad he is out of the hospital now.
