I'd recommend you call them on Monday, as only they know what their schedule is these days.

Also depends on if buying in roller kit form or completely finished/painted roller ready for an engine.

I think its around 2 years for a non painted kit, add another year for a painted roller. Hopefully mine will ship this month, ordered April 2020, non painted kit. Probably would have gotten it earlier this year but had communication issue with painter which delayed the delivery for about 6 month.

I heard they were not taking orders on them at this time as they were + 2 years in backlog.

I will be very close to 3 years for a painted kit. Very little assembly by ERA.

I expect delivery in very early 2023.

If you were to guess, and had you asked ERA to literally do it all, how much time do you think that would have added?

Wow - my semi-roller, unpainted kit took about 8 months back around 2009. Business must be good.

I suspect to have ERA build a roller would add 3 months or so.
