Old horse new beating cam question

Yep. Companies like Oregon cam, dr. Diff, Hughes engines, etc. Where you can still talk to the owners is the best, they know what they are talking about, know the products, use the products and customer service is priority one. As the future of their business relies on it as much as the quality of their product does. I try and buy from as many independently owned small businesses as I can for the same reasons. Just too bad they are fewer day by day.
