8 weeks is unreasonable.  My experience with 7 engine transplants, and also
running a business of my own, is that difficult (or less profitable) jobs
tend to sit on the shop floor or in the back lot until the customer
squawks, due to competing jobs and limited resources.  I keep the pressure
on a weekly basis, but in a friendly way.  Good luck.
