it was $90. to have my stock rods resized...as for buying imported asian products there is no way around it in daily life as we know it...imported products make more profit and are more affordable...the biggest american companies are outsourcing there (i know people taking early retirement because their factory is relocating to china)...and we have sold record amounts of weapons to china and india...talk to the president about that...back to cars...70 dream ill have to cruise down in my bird to check yours out...

The cat 5140 (and their derivatives) is the way to go with any kind of performance in mind over the stock rods. With that said they should be given a once over (like any part) to make sure everything is, as it should.


And as stated above the Asia products are EVERYWHERE in our American lives.
