As it has been stated before, these orders work when phoned in by the parts people. When my parts guy looked up the number it said no stock. I had him look up stage1 and stage1-2 and it said stock only at the distributor, so he called. He placed my order on the phone and said that was how it had to be done(at least in Canada)

it all depends on the parts dept and their knowledge of doing these orders, honestly if your dealer is clueless, you are better off going to a dealer that is not like Crate Engine or NJBlue....
Once you've made an order with your parts department, is there a way to check on the status of the order? Mine was ordered and I just paid it off today. Just wondering if I could find it's status out.
The parts are available as of wed 4/5 for stage 2. stage 1 in stock now. to answer some of your questions #1...if the dealer has not added the part and you call it will show not in stock as this is a brand new part. many new parts guys will just look up the number and think it is not out yet or wrong. in a previous post i gave the part numbers and even the page in the gm parts guide 2006. 2....there is no real way of tracking the part thought as it is shipped dealer direct, the dealer can see if it has left and is on its way but it all depends on the shipping co. think 5-10 days as resonable unless you overnight it. and as someone mentioned it all depends on the dealer ie: is the parts guy new or does your dealer have knowledge of gm performance parts.
The parts dept. can but a spac case out on any part ordered. When that is done they are able to track the part down. You can find out if the order was recieved, submitted and shipped out. From that point a tracking # will appear from the shipper; Fed Ex, and will confirm the part is in route and give an ETA to the destination. At my shop, I have kept my parts guy up to date on these kits with info from this forum and was able to confirm wether or not anything was bs.
Any dealership that is just looking up the #'s in the computer won't find them yet. They will need to make phone calls to the proper contacts and go the extra step.
We were told that there was "no stock aval." on stage 2, we made a few calls and were told the samething someone else posted, Shipping Direct from supplier.
Oh, yes you can have any part "Overnighted" if you wish. I missed the deadline while checking on the avail. of stage 2.

So my question is, NJBLUESS, do you know where to call to get it ordered? Isn't that how you guys did it?

The dealers will not stock this.. Hence Direct Ship. When order is placed it is shipped from a 3rd party or the company who makes the kits
So what will be the difference ordering it from CED or your dealer? if it still takes like 5-7 days... unless u are able to negotiate with price with your dealer
And people who have ordered it from CED what do they charge for shipping?
And this is stupid but might as well ask... but does anyone have a GM card? can we use our earnings on Accessories or parts?
put it to you this way, the parts are coming from a company in Michigan, since CED is not too far away ups zones show it as 1-2 days travel, I would suspect that if you order a kit from them Monday, then By wed/thurs it should hit CED and then out it goes if you are local, if it ships direct figure out what typical shipping from Michigan to you is and you will have your answer!
