I always figure word of mouth feedback from people who use the product is about the best feedback and that all sounds pretty good. Chinese copper piping is also suspect. We have some high-rises here in Vancouver with a bunch of water leaks due to China-made inferior copper piping.

I'll probably try them on a few things and see what happens. Can't beat their prices-that's for sure.

I've been in the parts biz most of my life and have seen a lot of junk. I guess that's what makes me leary.

I saw their aluminum water pump was cheap but couldn't resist the temptation to buy one from GM Performance Parts for my serp system. Shipped to my work for $102.00. Wasn't gonna pass that one up. It pays to work for a GM dealer!  ;D

Definelty thinking about their HEI with a 65000 volt coil for $90.00 though.

I bought a HEI sbc distributor with a coil cap and rotor from them for $49.95. it got here quickly and it works great.

i thought that it had to be junk for such a low price but i have a friend that uses them alot with no problems so i felt safe buying it.

I bought one from them also to try it out
It works great after playing with the curve, they even included a gasket
They had great deals on Gen 1 Patriot heads a while back

http://stores.ebay.com/whiteperformance1

Has anyone looke at their EBAY Store ???????
The Shop Pictured in the link you posted, is Fred White's Shop.....Fred White and his Crew have been doing Performance Engine Builds in TN for the past 30yrs or so, and I believe they have been in a few of the Engine Masters Builders Guides...
Here's their site:
http://www.whiteperformance.com/

I don't know if that's actually their Ebay Store as I don't see it mentioned on their Site, so you might want to shoot Fred and His Crew an Email asking them if it is.....

Kingsport, TN....hmmm. Thats where we get our raw glass where I work. I am over the receiving dept, maybe I can get one of the friendly truck drivers to deliver for me....lol

Just checked...

"Our toll free number is 877-288-3881 Feel free to call most anytime. We maintain long hours at our store, and someone is usually here to help you."

That is off of E-bay and the phone number matches and both pics of the store front matches.
