What's the casting number?

All else is window dressing, fluff, and of no consequence. You can't make chicken salad out of chicken s*** no matter how much money you spend on it.

If they're 882, or 624, or 993, run away. Or worse yet, what one guy told me once when I asked him what castings he had worked up and was selling for improbably cheap, he said "almost as good as 882s". I could not wait to get off the phone.

can trust most 993, and a few 882, but no 624 !
