Cost of Edelbrock
He maybe dead now but does that mean an instant change was done?
I’ve seen to many American companies make total crap right here within the states. The Chinks can and do make excellent parts IF there instructed to do so. IF you (the company owner) OK a half assed made part, don’t blame the Chinks. There smart enough to do what you want & OK as good. They don’t give a rats *** what you say is OK as good or good enough. You (the company) gave them a job to do for a agreed price and quality level that you (company owner) OK as fit to sell. If the company OK’s a crappy part as good for sale, then that’s what the Chinks will make for you.
The bottom line is greed.
On the mention above on the Edelbrock vs Chink stuff, there are a few things that come to mind between them.
Does the intake fit what your doing? Racing or cruising the streets with an occasional WOT blasts?
Do you need to pay the higher price for every last bit of power? If you do, are you racing?
To me the cheaper Chink intake are a perfect solution for many and even more so against the recent sky rocketing prices of Edelbrock parts.
(Which I think is due in part to the Trump/Chink $$$ war of words .... but that’s political and I don’t wanna go there anymore than I did, there is a forum for that.)
