They claimed the aluminum was 30% stronger than the factory casting. But those things are now crazy expensive, so in terms of money spent for % of better increase, it doesn't seem like a fair trade.
I agree the per dollar 'increase' in performance/strength is not good on them. More like ridiculous.
What I was interested in is what you had to say about their design with the through bolts.
If the bolts are in fact a step up in support, (not sure if they are or not) wouldn't it make sense then to have a through bolt design with these nodular cases? Not sure if 'they' are working off an existing mold or are they starting with new tooling? If new, was just thinking that if a company goes to the trouble of producing these, (and money was no object in terms of production cost) would they be better served to use the through-bolt design?
