Word on the street is, they make them for Comp Cams and many others (they engrave whatever name you want).

Anyone try 'em?

I'm thinking I will give them a shot.

That sounds like the place Mr. Pbody said he gets his. I may be wrong, but I think it was in Michigan.


Just because you think it won't make it true. Horsepower is KING. To dispute this is stupid. C. Alston

Cool beans Mike. I did some digging and found your past posts about them. They seem to be worth a try.

Thanks all.

Good guys. They aren’t as fast at getting things out as they used to be. They do a lot of OEM diesel stuff amongst other things. They private label some stuff for some companies you would know. If your in a gigantic rush, may not be your best shot, but otherwise, you’ll be fine. Another case where I think the son is taking over more of the business moving forward. I wish I could share some funny stories from the old man, but I’d be banned from Moparts....lol

There was an era that everything they (OE) produced THAT I KNEW OF LOCALLY for roller cam loads FAILED. Want to say that was about 2010ish ...May be different now With that said the old guy was friendly...Recently I used MANTON and was VERY HAPPY with options quality and price.

Its VERY safe to say, their stuff isnt on par with Manton....I use the OEM pieces for, well, OEM type street/boat builds etc. They do make some race " cut your own" kits for a well known Mopar outlet. You cant beat Manton in my book.

NOT Trend Jake, totally different place. Trend is excellent.

I measured what I want to order but have not got around to ordering them yet.

Just not in any kind of hurry really, too many things going on.

It's good there are a few mentions to the effect of...maybe they aren't the best choice.

Will kick it around for awhile longer and sure appreciate all your guys' input.
