I have........mostly Chi Com stuff from the little I've looked.
I bought valve covers and a fuel log I will never use.
Be prepared to get an email a day from them afterwards.
They are persistent.

One of my buddies was looking at a SFI balancer for small block and it was $89. I told him I personally wouldnt risk it and to get a good balancer. He had already purchased a set of sheetmetal valvecovers but hasnt used them yet.

I bought some Scat I-beam rods from them, they checked out perfect (no blems), fast service and cheap too. The rods are still in the motor, going on 3 years now.

I had an issue with them once a while back. Bought some Pro-Comp brand main studs for my 400 block when I was building the 452. They didn't fit correctly. When I called them, they said the part number on the box was correct, but the application most obviously was wrong. It was a Pro-Comp issue, but I got a little frustrated with them because they wouldn't give me my money back for return. Their policy is to only give in-store credit for returns. I didn't need anything else from them...... I ended up getting ARP studs through my machinist, and I think I spent the in-store credit with them on a timing chain (???). I just thought the way they went about things wasn't in the customers interest.

Anyway, other than that I think you'll be okay with them.

I have both rocker arms, and valve covers on the turbo motor I just built.

The only thing I saw wrong was that the rocker arm hold down bolts were too long.

Other then that, so far so good.

I bought fabbed valve covers from them...they were supposed to be satin finish, but showed up as chrome...ran em anyways (they are painted black now lol)

I was worried the bolt holes wouldn't line up with the holes on the heads, but they fit great. With the reusable moroso gaskets I haven't had a single leak and have had the valve covers off a good 40 times or so

My uncle bought a cheap msd knockoff (procomp)from there two years ago towards the end of the season didnt work so he called them and they gave him the same bit about in store credit so he shipped the box back and didnt ever hear back from them.... 100 and some bucks down the drain. Seems like they are great as long as you have no warranty issues.

I was about to ask the same thing. I'm looking at a Quicktime bellhousing and they're about $50 cheaper than almost everybody else.

I bought oil pan, deep trans pan, balancer, and a few other things from them and everything is working good. I also get my order the day after I order it. Cant beat the price and super fast shipping.
