Just got a response back from McLeod. Said project us still alive. I'm on cell now. When I can I'll copy/paste it here. My bet would still be on Passon and the A855.
Heres the message.
Yes the project is still alive, but there is no time table for a delivery date. If youre in a time crunch within the next 6 months I would look elsewhere say like Tremec.
I know this is a very frustrating topic for many but believe me its more frustrating for us here at Mcleod. We are doing are very best to bring a quality product to the market at a fair value but will not be rushed due to demand. Please continue to check in from time to time with status and hopefully very soon we can make a sale.
Doesn't sound very inspiring now does it?
