Another great part.

[Ty 1885]

Yesterday i instaled my Cloyes true roller billet timming chain. At first something looked odd! The crank key was on 10 oclock with 0 on the gear facing straight up (12 oclock)
I know that the key should be at about 2 oclock with 0 at 12 oclock.
Called Cloyes they say that never happend before and they will send new (good) gear.

It would have sucked if i did not noticed this before i cranked the engine:hissyfit:
Please check everything twise!!!!

Why do i get all the best parts ??

lmfao...i'm in europe. and somehow i had a lot of respect for american made parts, but it's just a justbelieve.

patrioisme has died. you became like europe. and over here there are companies holding you ontop, not the unions.

sorry for my small vent.

Re: Another great part.

According to what i read, parts can be labeled " MADE IN USA " as long as they are repackaged in the US! Even thought they are made over seas ( CHINA mostly )

If we are lucky enought to catch a defect or misinformation (TCI) on the parts/items we buy, we are still out shipping cost when we send items back!
And we dont catch it, then we are told that we dont warranty "racing parts"

I think the best way to let these companys know our dissatisfactions is to inform everybody that may deals with them!!

Nope federal law if it says made in USA it it has to be made here

theres assembled in USA, and repackaged in USA but if the product has USA on it it has to be made here

Re: Another great part.

Wasn't it Walmart that was putting made in USA patches or stickers on things that were not made here and there argument was the sticker/patch was made in the USA. I may be smoking crack but I though I read something like that but it happened way back when.

I totally agree if it says made in the USA it should be. Not that it has to be good if its made here but it makes me feel all warm and fuzzy inside when I buy in the US
