    I'm glad the 'screwdriver and yank' method worked! I was afraid that people were going to lambast me for even suggesting such a crude procedure.

    I'm sure your truck will enjoy the extra air.

    Just got an e-mail from Oscar at Flowsource. Below is the timeline they are looking at. There was three hold-ups as a result of getting material in to produce them, creating a SKU for our group buy in their system, and having to get boxes big enough to fit the filter and the cleaning stuff.

    aFe will start making the filters on 23rd (Monday).

    Oscar will have filters in his hand on the 27th (Friday).

    Oscar will start shipping on the 2nd of July (Tuesday).

    That is all directly from him.

    Sounds good to me. That's a very reasonable estimate when you consider everything we're getting. Not only that, but there is a lot more involved in manufacturing/packaging/shipping for this group buy than a normal order from a reseller. In other words, no one should inquire about their stuff until at least July 10.

    Agreed. I completely forgot we were getting the rest of that stuff until you mentioned it.

    I was invoiced on my birthday, and might be putting in the new filter on the country's birthday... anybody else feel like cake?

    Hey Fellas,

    I missed out on this group buy. Any way to somehow get my grubby little hands on one of these filters? Does anyone have Oscar's email at Flowsource?

    Thanks!

    I too am wondering if this is still open. I sent a PM to mceagle555 and even emailed Oscar at flowsource.net which was bounced back as no address.

    I looked thru the thread and did not see any other address for Oscar.

    thanks wcm608 for the email.

    I emailed them and was told that I would get a chance to buy one if they had any extras.

    Just wanted to post and see if anyone had received their filter yet. I have not heard anything from Oscar at Flowsource, which should mean there were no hang-ups...

    Let me know if I can be of any help.
