Is Masterpro a cheapo Chinese brand? If so, recommend sticking with name-brand stuff.90 Festy (Larry)--B6M (Matt D. modified B6 head), header, 5-speed, Capri XR2 front brakes, many other little mods

EDIT: I go to Oreillys almost exclusively ....except for bearings and stuff that roll/spin. All they have is Masterpro for that, so I have to go to AZ to get Timken, or NAPA for brand name stuff
If it rolls/spins ...get the best you can, so as not to have to replace it right away.Last edited by drddan; 08-22-2013, 01:33 PM.Dan
