I won't be like everyone else and tell you to do a search because this is a sommon question. I've recently read that due to this being the time of the year that everyone is getting ready for next year's race season that howell is having problems keeping up, i've read about it taking as much as a month or 2! your best bet would to just be call them and find out because nobody(at least that i know of) on this site can give you a definite answer to this question.

Depends on the shop man.... but ## looking at about 8-10 or more hours of work, so it depends on the mechanic and the shop

Will take long, took me 6-8 weeks, when I bought it they said 3-4 weeks, then when i came back to the site it changed to 3-6 weeks cause of the shows that were going on, but trust me with howell automotive it takes a WHILE and I never got my oil pump
