Kasse and or Bishoff have not used any coatings in their engines for years!

Maybe so but many do, and alot has carried over to the oem world.

Not just coatings, everyone goes ga ga over King brand bearings which the majority are aluminum, just as in many oem cars today.

Think of the future and the tree huggers, al bearings are alot less harmful in the landfull then a bucket if tri-metal bearings.

Anyway I think they have there place, maybe not for everyone and everything.
