This happens routinely. Someone will be here on Monday from Louisiana for the IMSR procedure.
We give ourselves a 3 day window to carry out the work. This includes the entire procedure, before and after dyno evaluation as well as my extensive test drive to ensure there are no issues or leaks after the work is done. I drive the cars a MINIMUM of 90 miles and sometimes as much as 400 if we have the car long enough.

The car will arrive here on Monday and will leave my facility fully retrofitted on Wednesday afternoon. I'll only have time to drive this car about 100 miles, which is fine as issues always show up early if they are going to exist. (usually on the dyno)

BTW- We ALWAYS include a clutch arrangement, its mandatory.

We prefer drop off on a Monday and pick up on Wednesday afternoon.. There are plenty of things to do in our area while we are doing our work. We do not have an area for people to 'wait" here at the facility, we operate rater differently than most :-)

We also refuse to rush, we have the process so worked out and do it so much (4 already this month) that we know how long its going to take..
