We dont HATE them, its just that they are way overpriced, IMO. Take their camshafts for instance, $379.00? Thats ridiculous. You can order a "custom" one from Comp, and have over $100.00 left over, for other parts. They are smart when it comes to marketing though. Like their prom upgrades. By the time you are done upgrading, youll have a $600.00 prom that is not any better than the one you had to begin with. Ive had no problems with them in the past, but I know a few who have. They say their customer support is not that good. My old engine had their ZZ-9 cam, and I had no problems. Just like any product you buy, try to get the best deal, on the best quality parts you can. The decision is yours.
