"Ive said it before, a lot of reboxed garbage out there."
Sort of related but several years before I got out of the engine building business I noticed MAJOR changes to many of the parts we'd been using.
One thing in particular was boxing. I'd get in a TRW part, for example, and on the box it would say that the Country of origin was listed on the bottom of the box. Flip the box over and a dozen or so Countries listed but nothing specifying any one in particular. Probably one method used to confuse everyone involved as to whether the part was offshore origin, re-boxed, or some sort of low quality substitution for what used to be a high quality USA made part........
