2strokespirit Posted March 7, 2008 Report Share Posted March 7, 2008 Well here is a local company that sells aftermarket products, name brands like wiseco etc. They are importing new cranks, stroker long rods etc, they look like the wiseco and Hot Rods, but they come from Taiwan with no name. They say its the same company that makes cranks for some of the name brands. Hard to believe. Ok so for like $200 I can buy a brand new stroker crank, that is a dealer price, would you guys do it? I just don't like the "made in taiwan" part, but these days so much things is made in Taiwan, even my new Wiseco pistons that was imported from the states, the g pin wrapping says made in Taiwan, the piston is made in USA and the rings is made in Japan. Anything except taiwan... Please guys any comment? Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Bansh-eman Posted March 7, 2008 Report Share Posted March 7, 2008 I think I remember reading that the hotrods cranks are made in Taiwan, the rods are made in the states and then the whole thing is assembled in the states. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

If I can give you some feeback on the manufacturer, then it might be worth $200. :geek: Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
