I know copying happens, and because I buy so little aftermarket stuff I had no idea this brand was a ripp-off brand.
I seem to affiliate this company name with some aftermarket Pontiac heads;
What were they copies of??

The Speedmaster Pontiac heads are a copy of the Edelbrock aluminum heads. Their are some subtle differences, probably just enough to avoid a law suit. At least they don't have Edelbrock cast right on the center exhaust ports!!. General anecdotal reports are the Pontiac heads are decent. The aluminum has been tested and found to be OK. My guess is if the heat really gets turned up on them, they will go bankrupt , reorganize and re-open under another name. They have done this several times already.
